| | Mozilla to Force FF Update Quote: Computerworld - Mozilla plans to push 12 million users of the aged Firefox 3.5 to a newer version next month by taking the unprecedented step of automatically upgrading their browser. Firefox 3.5, which debuted in mid-2009, is already on life-support: Mozilla gave users their last version 3.5 security patches three weeks ago. And pushing me even more to Chrome. One of my biggest peeves is auto-update software. |

| | I'm with you. Although it mentions 3.5, the day they force me up from my 3.6.6 to 4 so I can no longer use "themes" is the day I dump it. |

| | No problem for me. See no reason in maintaining less secure 3.5. Its a bit like using last years virus definitions. |

| Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit 7601 Multiprocessor Free Service Pack 1 | And the only way you can stop auto-update of chrome is to use a portable version. |

| | ...another reason why i use chromeplus  and when you do update, it keeps an old_chrome.exe available for use too. (...although at the moment, there are a couple of minor bugs in taskbar previews in latest version...) |
