Then I've decided to assume that both XFire and Waterfox work correctly and there must be something else interfering with them. I've started to uninstall typical applications which might do that. I got my answer on the first try! Uninstalling Comodo Firewall (64-bit) did the trick! So for anyone having problem with XFire and Waterfox - check if you're using Comodo software.
Case solved! Waterfox is back on board and so far - it will be for a looooong time! Thanks everybody!

Can't believe I forgot about checking the firewall and sandboxing. Anyway, good to hear that everything is playing nicely now. Enjoy!

I'd understand having the same performance, but Firefox being faster makes no sense, especially not since WF13 to which a more powerful compiler is used. And that is an issue being resolved in WF14.

Waterfox 13 PL1 runs flawlessly on XP x64, but I had to manually copy the program directory from a PC with Windows 7 on it. Not being able to just run the installer is a bit annoying.

WF14 will have installer compatibility with XP thumb.gif

Have you execute the *.xpi ?
After execute *.xpi you must do it in waterfox :
about:config
in the filter field : general.useragent.locale
Now replace the current value by the value of Polish country :
en-US by pl-PL (or po-PO or ?????)
Restart waterfox

thumb.gif yes.. i missed that point. @darkhog those xpi works both for wf and ff

Ok so after a few more tests with flash I have found that it is affecting waterfox the newest version and flash newest version. What I will see is either the plug in container has crashed or wierd glitches in some movies.

Example: Movie on xfinitytv.com. Xfinitytv.com uses either flash or silver-light. Both of these programs are up to date but have started causing movie glitches and black screens not with windows but the movie will all of a sudden show a black screen then return with a picture.

It may be a glitch with waterfox or somthing else but just letting everyone know its there.

I just installed Waterfox and can't get Java to install. I've run the xpiinstaller.exe file that I got via the link on the Waterfox download page, and I've also tried running the full installer that you get from java.com. Each time it says Java was successfully installed, but it doesn't show up in about:plugins. Any suggestions?
post #2738 of 5132
Ignore my previous post. Apparently I hadn't run the full Java installer ("jre-7u5-windows-x64.exe") after all. I ran that and it installed everything properly. I guess the jxpiinstaller.exe file only handles 32-bit and not 64-bit.

How do I save/backup tab groups in WF/FF? I know how to save tabs (by backing up sessionstore.js in the profile folder) but how do I specifically save the tab groups?

Why would you want to backup just a certain part of FF and not all of it? Anyway, tab groups are a part of sessionstore.js.

Also this might be of relevance:
