    This browser doesn't coordinate well with my system security program. The browser is just fine, so I'll have to check with my security folks to see what's up.

    Nice but still losing ground to Chrome.

    Two bugs that see immediately with new version

    1)On installation, theme switched to default. If this is intentional than it is bad idea.
    2)Firefox process does not stop when browser window get closed. Very annoying and inconvenient when restarting Firefox after updating addons.

    Also I do not remember Firefox to take so much memory from the start. What is going on with memory management?

    So far so good. All themes and add on's worked. Still the best browser out in about. Though allowing spammers like Bruno to voice bs is a little annoying.

    To anyone wanting to spew against Bruno70, he's a troll who is just pointing out the fact that the syntax of the sentence "Mozilla Firefox (v8) for Windows 8.0" does make it *sound* like it's for Windows 8.0. Although the rest of the 99.999% of us understand that it is not for Windows 8.0 but Firefox 8.0, we score it accordingly. It's just the user Bruno70's way of downrating for the sake of downrating until Betanews fixes the syntax mistake.

    As far as the final of 8.0 is concerned, it's running great here. All my addons work fine. Maybe addon developers finally got the hint that they should keep up work, eh?
