Didn't you test this? Didn't you notice about 30% of the XP users can't download even a JPEG to their HD and open it to view it? Thanks for making the old version easy to locate, except for making a big obvious button on the front page of the FF3 site for all the other people that got screwed. Here, the button should be HUGE and say "ROLL BACK TO SOMETHING THAT WORKS" and it should point here: http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/ I have various FF3 addons I downloaded from the Mozilla site, and they are compatible with FF3 per the update interface. This issue started happening as soon as I installed FF3 and it rather cost me some valuable time and effort at my place of business. Since the stupid-as-hell "Download Day" I have been combing the web for solutions to this problem, and it would seem there are multiple fixes THAT DON'T WORK. Don't bother referring me to the IE Security Zones portion of Internet Options. Don't bother linking this embarrassing thread to me: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=645496&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&sid=20e0e41ac563fb6e6f29465cae2fdaee Or this one: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_save_or_download_files#Reset_system_Internet_security_settings_-_Windows Or this one: http://forums.macnn.com/82/applications/370639/cant-download-anything-with-firefox-3-a/ I could go on, but I won't. You know what the deal is. Fix it. How completely ridiculous it looks to strive for some pointless "world record" for software downloads, when it is quite obvious the world record you made was "Largest Software Blunder To Date". LOL. Internet Exploder indeed. Since your support forums are a shambles filled with filthy, stinking goat-children, I’m going to attempt to post this anywhere I can until

Now the google toolbar does not work, which means that none of the bookmarks that I had stored in google toolbar work. When I try to access the bookmarks on google toolbar, it asks me to "sign in" and when I do, it does nothing. It keeps prompting me to sign in. I think a few million people are going to be very unhappy. I regret updating. I attempted to re-install FF 2 and it does not work. It crashes every time I start FF 2. What a disaster.
