Firefox 5 is out

You can get it now from Menu > Help > About if it doesn't prompt on loading.

Seems noticeably faster in loading, will give it a proper going over tomorrow.

Ooh, I'll be sure to check this out later. I don't get why they need to progress onto another version quite so quickly, but i love FF4, so hopefully this is even better.

I got the pop-up yesterday, but I'll wait for a few favourable reviews before taking the plunge

I'm using it now. Apart from faster loading times, it all looks the same as version 4 so far...

Their policy now is to bring out new versions very quickly. I notice some of my add-ons will be compatible with versions 6 and 7 so looks like we're heading for some quick turnarounds...

Aye, same opinion here.

Calling it 5.0 seems a bit rich, it's far more 4.1, aka 4.0 with bug fixes and speed/memory optimisation.

It really is faster and uses less memory, definitely upgrade.

Updated but Google toolbar is not compatible with version 5.0 (yet)

I'm sure you'll realise why this is stressful RJS.
Non of the vids on the Arsenal site seem to play just bring up a blank white box

EDIT: Forget it, busted links on Arsenals front page, Player works.

I used to be with it, but then they changed what 'it' was.
Now, what I'm with isn't it, and what's 'it' seems weird and scary

Yes, it's really annoying forgetting to open a new window everytime I search google. Confused (Yes I've had to put the inbuilt one back on)
