Didn't work for me. Made the scrolling clunky and different speeds. Maybe a mouse driver thing.

Theres a smooth scrolling option built in to FF 3.5

Firefox 3.5.1 released. Bug updates, one of them major apparently.

Ive ditched FF for Safari for the time being, mainly because it started to feel sluggish, especially when firing it up, it seems to take a lot longer than the BETA versions I used.

Heres a page of tips to try and help speed FF3.5 up a wee bit.

An interesting new one.

Interesting just for interest sake...

Collusion is an experimental add-on for Firefox and allows you to see all the third parties that are tracking your movements across the Web. It will show, in real time, how that data creates a spider-web of interaction between companies and other trackers.

Mozilla

As stated, the more you surf, the more the spider web grows, showing what sites are tracking you visiting other sites.

So far TD shows Photobucket & Youtube. Not surprising given the number of threads using those services.

Interestingly Google just showed up as a link to TD after I used the google search function on here to look for a FF add-on thread.

Also Facebook doesn't show up at all, which means my anti-facebook tracking add-on must be working.

Yes, install another add-on and increase the memory footprint, freezes, slow-downs and crashes.

Great idea.

Actually, on a serious note, that makes sense. After all, if your fucking browser stops working, no-one can get any meaningful tracking information from you.

Fok off, Harry.

Check if it works on your iPad. Or your XBox.

If your XBox can't handle it, just say so.

No Dramas.

**harrybarracuda** · 28-06-2012, 01:55 AM

Try it on Android, they just released a new version.

Otherwise I'm on v15.0a2 and it STILL fucking sucks the big one.

Get off your gameboy and try it on a desktop.

FFS it's like I'm talking to MacTards or Butterfly.

Perhaps you are looking in a mirror.

Again, I'm using 15.0a2 and it fucking sucks.

What platform do you think I'm using, idiot?

**PlanK** · 28-06-2012, 02:29 AM

I'm referring to current FF, the here and now.

Not interested in you iPad, harry.

All well and good if you're menstruating, but I don't really wanna know about it.

**harrybarracuda** · 28-06-2012, 02:38 AM

Stop being a complete tit, download it and tell me I'm wrong (or at least monitor it's footprint while you're using it).

A pre-Beta?

You go ahead Hazza. Most normal people wouldn't touch a Beta, let alone a pre-Bata, but you're special.

Remember to keep telling that to yourself while you use it. Positive affirmations will do you a world of good.

**PlanK** · 28-06-2012, 03:14 AM

4Chan has come up as a link to TD.

I can only assume that's because I've been reading posts by Gameboy Hazza.

Nevermind, each to their own, eh.

I run the production release as well, to compare the two.

My point is 13.0.1 is shit, and even though they keep banging out new releases they really aren't making any significant improvements.

It's still a bloated beast and needs a complete redesign, not prettying up every few months.
