I'm unlikely to. I'd rather stick with 3.5.1 which works just the way I like it and I've disabled auto update. That's been two updates now that have totally screwed my settings.

After several reinstalls/reboots etc. I pretty much have everything working correctly now with a few exceptions.

On my main OS (x64) I keep getting lockups at 100% cpu on popup windows, i.e., save dialog boxes and the like. I cannot x out -- I can only close them using the taskbar.

On both x64 and XP I am unable to add new friends or reply to messages in MySpace. They are using some sort of beta application which doesn't seem to be compatible with FF.

No, I downloaded but haven't installed it yet. Wasn't sure I should take the chance.

Well I was having some toolbar problems again. I had 3 windows open. On one of them my menu bar was grayed out (File/Edit...). On another one the Yahoo Toolbar was missing and I couldn't get it back.

I closed FF and restarted it, and when it restarted it reverted back to 3.5.2.

Still having those 100% lockups and inability to close windows using x.
