Mozilla Firefox

There is a few topics on the Ancestry boards about the viewer and apparently they are working on a new one instead of updating the current one everytime Firefox is updated.

Upgraded to version 8, and still getting the warning about excessive usage, and also having freezing problems with the site. Am I alone in this?

No problems at may end. What do you mean by excessive usage ?

[Redroger]

Sorry, confused the issue; that is a warning of excessive processor usage by AVG, this was mentioned on another thread.

I hadn't seen that but  warning about the usage have only come on my computer since the upgrade to AVG

The real worry is the fact that the "Not responding" issue has re-appeared. Thought version 8 fixed that!

Is it my imagination, ohas version 8 lost some of the firefox uniqueness? It seems a lot more like IE now.
One feature missingthat I liked before, was the option to save your tabs if you had several opened. Very handy if you were part way through a search, and needed 2 or 3 sites up.

There seems to be no limit to the number of tabs that you can have open in FF.
I now open all the sites/tabs (I think that) I need as I open FF (as "home pages".)


If you need another tab open just hit the "+" sign.

There is also an add-on whereby you can save the page to clipboard if you want to.

Hi

I'm totally puzzled by the problems that people are having with FF. Everything is running fine with me- better than before, I'd say!

Is it something I'm doing/not doing 

I always think that the more 'twiddling around' that one does,  the more chance for messing up - if it works don't mess with it
