[mikee]

I currently have firefox 3 beta 2 and I like it alot better than firefox 2, I heard beta 3 which has alot of new features is comming out on monday and i am wondering if it is possible to upgrade using the help>check for updates and downloading it that way

It should be. Will have to wait till monday and find out for sure.

Can you tell when the final version is releasing... ??

no one really knows, i ve searched everywhere for that answer

I would advise against it. This is the trick used in Vista Beta. Plus read the note:

Note: This method may or may not works with current RTM release of Windows Vista (user feedback welcome), and may cause a blue screen loop or constant flicker, so use with care and proper backup is a must.

I haev tried this on a Vista Home Basic PC with a compatible card and it doesnt work.

tht was my bad i pasted in the wrong thread tht was supposed 2 b in the vista discussion

im just too tired

the firefox beta 2 jumped tabs for some reason

It is browser realted so it can stay here. That is the only reason why i didnt close it, delete it or move it.

But AFAIK you can just update. If i am not mistaken i was able to update from beta 1 to beta 2.

I just installe beta 3, looks good but they were supposed to have a vista skin but I got stuck with the one for xp

looks like this

You need to wait for Beta 4 if you want to see the new skin for Vista

Meh the performance of Beta 3 sticnks and Fasterfox is not compatible yet. Not worth the upgrade yet.
