The first is lack of feedback after choosing something after a right-click. For example, in FF2 when I highlight some text, right-click and choose "copy," the menu that popped up when I right-clicked flashes the "copy option" before fading away. In FF3 when I click "copy," it just goes away immediately and makes me think it closed on me and it didn't confirm my copy command.

The second... I forget to be honest lol

I think it had something to do with not being able to delete entries I accidentally inputted in about:config. Not sure if you can delete them in FF2, but I wouldn't have had to anyway since FasterFox works in FF2 and I wouldn't have to input the choices myself.

Oh, I remember now. In FF2 I can click anywhere on the scroll bar to the right and go to that spot right away. Say the bar is all the way at the top. If I click on the bottom of the scroll bar where it's empty, it'll go to the bottom of the page right away upon click. In FF3 it doesn't do that. Instead I'd have to hold a click at the bottom until the scroll bar gets there. That seriously impacts the way I browse the net.

Anyone else pissed it downloads without permission? I can see hackers taking advantage of this and instead downloading trojans.

I've seen FireFox take up like 800MB of memory on my system before. Restart FF fixed it though.

Did they only fix the specific bug in FF3 or the CPU and memory problems that FF has had since FF1?
