Default Firefox + Vista x64 = No no?
Ok I just installed Vista x64, and it's sucking!

Firefox takes horrendusly long times to load any page at all, while IE is zippy and has no problems! What in the world is going on??

I'm currently installing SP1, so we'll see if that fixes anything...

Works fine for my. I was using FF2 before and now FF3 Beta 5 and both are fast.

You most likely need to reinstall the OS.

Yea mine works great. Installed it, went to appdata under c:\users\admin\appdata\roaming, deleted the stock mozilla profile and replaced it with the one I always backup and thats the one that is even from xp, had the same pro for a long long time, and still no problems. I just back it up when ever something gets updated or new pw's or bookmark. It runs flawlessly.
