That's why I never download any new program until at least a month goes by.

Ya think? I was referring to not downloading 3.0 yet.

Really? I have to visit a malicious web page before I'm at risk? NO WAY! Lame article, lame vulnerability. Which browser doesn't have this risk (mac people go away)?

Anyway, I can't recall if Firefox 2.0 had this, but in 3.0 you can now drag and drop images to your desktop and it'll save them. Same goes for web links, it will save the page.

Haha wow. I never knew that. I just tried really quickly dragging in WoP.com and it does save to your desktop. That is so awesome!

I love 3.0, though I don't get what flaws there are....To me it works just fine haha. (So far)

I use Firefox at work and my eMac, but I've been dabbling with Flock on my wife's MacBook.
