Help set an official Guinness World Record and download Firefox 3.0 today. All downloads by 17:00 UTC on June 18, 2008 will count toward the record.

Download it here!

Who's in?

I'm going around work trying to get everyone to download it!

Bah I just got into work (Rackspace Hosting) and finished the download. Wow what a pain I cant update my add-ons since their bandwidth is capped out from all the downloads. I cant fucntion without my add-ons! lol

The only add-on I use is Adblock. Are there any other good ones?

Re: Help set a World Record!

I am downloading it right now.
Here are the add-ons I am currently using on my desktop. My laptop has just a few less I think. I just found the BBCode one yesterday, I'm liking it so far.

I use the del.icio.us plugin

Re: Help set a World Record!

For some reason the BBCode one isn't working period, and since I just updated, 1/2 of my add-ons are now usless, go figure.

Re: Help set a World Record!

I cant live without the following add-ons

All-in-one Gestures (Allows you to run scripts using mouse movements)
Signature (saves prefabricated messages - Job required)
Gmail Notifier (Notifies me of any new gmail emails)
Fox Clocks (Times in various time zones)
Spell checker (I cant spell this is a must)

I've grown VERY attached to all-in-one gestures but since firefox 3.0 doesnt have it I was forced to switch to "FireGestures" which is basically the same thing but with a few added features.

If you don't have mouse gestures its a must!

Cool! Lots of neat add-ons. I hope they get them all updated to run with Firefox 3 soon!

Re: Help set a World Record!

Hey looks like it wont be necessary. If your thinking about upgrading to FF3 but are concerned about your old add-ons / extensions then apply the following steps:

1) type about:config in firefox address bar
2) Right click in bottom console and choose New > Boolean
3) Add the following: extensions.checkCompatibility
4) Set value to FALSE

This will ignore any version updates and your addons will work as normal.

Yay!

Ya, looks nice at first but I think it is joining the "bubble" bandwagon that apple started with the high gloss globes and bubbly text. Would have been nice to have seen something new.

I'm downloading it now. I hope it looks better than the previous versions.

The look isn't for me but the performance is outstanding:
