Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Using a 2.0 version, when promted to upgrade, do it 2. After restart, my add-ons continued working. 3. General slow performance, even disabling all add-ons I don't upgraded from any especific site, just answered the prompt. I,m now downgrading to version 2.0, please let'us know by any form when the bug is cleared (slashdot would be fine)
What is U3? It sounds like you updated from Firefox 2 to Firefox 3 and something was slow for you. That's not the experience of most users... what exactly was slow?
U3 is a "platform" sold with some pen drives that let you install and use applications in any machine without leaving fingerprints. Its similar to PortableApps. I re-did the process of upgrading and the problem confirms. Everything is slow, showing a page, filling a form etc. A point that may be relevant is that it's been done in a non-privileged user Windows XP SP2.
Aristeu what's your present status? using FF v3.5?
