Firefox 15 remembers to forget old memory

[TVeblen]

I use a couple of add ons and they don't bug me for anything. I've got that "feature" turned off in the settings. I also set it to inform me of updates but do nothing. I get a notice from time to time that v15 is available but I will get to that when I get to that. I just ignore it, it is just not a problem for me.

Edit: It is good to know that there may be a conflict with Flash. I think I will wait a bit longer for the parties to work that one out!

FF is updating so often now, that the appearance/themes aren't being updated quickly enough. I used to use Past Modern (looked just like Netscape 6!) but the developer couldn't keep up. I tried others and the icons/buttons seem very small. The default theme is just plain fugly, and I end up using Simple Green with "large" icons... even larger would be a big improvement.

Dang, FF15 already? I'm on 14.0.1, any reason to upgrade? Is FF15 stable?

Stay with 14. When I d/l 15 some of my settings were messed up.

Yeah, like the old saying goes, if it ain't broken don't upgrade.

guys i have problem with my firfox 15,i think i accidentally installed or downloaded or something like that,this mystart by incredibar.com site or search engine open up every time and it is seriously pissing me off. Whenever i open a new tab,it automatically start loading this crap search engine,i have uninstalled any thing i didnt recognize from my control panel and as u can see nothing is in firefox. Any solution at all? before whenever i opened a new tab,i used to get my most visited sites there some of which i had pinned there,now every time i have to go my bookmarks and find and select them,its seriously getting in the way,anybody know what to do?

I don't think it is stable I have repeated Black screens and it's from Graphic acceleration

It will work fine for about 10 to 15 min and then everything goes blotchy Black

It could be my Graphics card in general but IE or Chrome doesn't do this

I have Facebook as FF start page so i really don't Trip to much on the fact that i just glance at my alerts every so often but it get's annoying when you start getting into deep reading and then BAM Blotchy Black screen then i have to simply exit and when i go back it happens even faster so I don't think it's stable lol

Try This:

1. At Firefox address bar, enter about:config and press ENTER.
2. At Filter: field, type keyword.url
3. You should see a Preference name of keyword.URL in the list. Double click it, a "Enter String Value" input box will appear.
4. Replace the string with: Google Click "OK" button

What about this setting?

Check this setting in "about:config".

​

If you set the url to a site (e.g. http://www.google.com.au/) that site will load when you open a new tab.
