On: Mozilla Releases Firefox 3 Beta 4

I ran the test with FF2 as well but I forgot to include the numbers, sorry. I got 14865 with FF2 no add-ons. Just ran with FF3B4 and got 4589.2ms. I would run it with IE7 but IE8 seems to have erased it.

That test doesn't include IE8 beta 1. When I tested it with the same website he used IE8B1 scored 8710.
