    Doesn't work with this beta. Anyone know of any fixes for this?

  2. Bookmark Sync? by Bander · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I used the previous beta quite happily under OS-X, but I've become seriously dependent on Foxmarks for keeping my bookmarks synced between the two (or 3, sometimes 4) systems I use regularly. Can anyone suggest a bookmark sync tool that works with Firefox 3? Ideally it would work with Firefox 2 as well, but 3 looks "ready enough for me" (if not my mom), so I'd probably be happy with using Firefox 3 everywhere if necessary.

    Other than the compatibility issues with mods written for older versions (omelettes, eggs, etc), I am impressed by the quality of version 3. The speed and interface tweaks are certainly welcome.

    there is a javascript vulnerability that has gone unpatched for a while now http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/02/09/2215205

    i sure hope moozilla's developers don't depend on NoScript to keep javascript features patched for them...
