Already posted in the update thread Ted, but no harm in it being posted again  :thumb: I must admit I do not find it blazingly fast but it is an improvement over firefox 3 when using google docs and other javascript intensive sites, but I think the hype gave me an "Oh is this it" feel for me. geo location is of no use to me as of this time and is disabled, my phone has that, private browsing is good, tabs are better laid out, all in all its worth the upgrade with HTML 5 audio and vid support, it is much better than FF3 I think.

I have been using 3.5 since beta 3. I think its a big improvement over 3.0 and 2.0 i find it faster to load certain pages. So  :thumb:

Has anyone else noticed the little swirly anim thing while a page is loading (I know they have a name but I can't remember what it is) has vanished with FF3.5 - or is maybe just my theme (Noia Extreme 2.0)?

I really miss that little guy - he was more than eye candy.

Perhaps it's the theme that's the cause, Steve. If that's the case, there should be an update for the theme at some point.

To get your "little swirly thing" back (no I don't know what its called either  ;D) - r/click on the taskbar > customize and it is on the menu that opens, just l/click and drag it to  where you want it.
