Hello,

Because Of Old AddOn Issues I Use FF3628.

A - Are You Also Using An Old FF Version ?

B - Have You Used The 'Check For Updates' Option Lately ?

C - Have You Read The 'Urgent' Notice To The Very End ?

D - Is FF Forcing Old DieHards, Like Me, To Upgrade To The 'Latest And Greatest' ?

If So, It Is Even More CHROME For Me.

What Do You Know About This ?

Thank You.

A - I have the latest version. (I use chrome though.)
B - I have it automatically update.
D - Well, 3.6 is about to go out of support

I suggest downloading this https://addons.mozil...ility-reporter/ - a lot of the time, an addon that's marked as incompatible actually works just fine. Personally, I prefer chrome because it's faster.

@LiveBrianD

Going Out Of Support Is No Problem For Me.

I Only Use It With A Site That Has Issues With CHROME, Or Vice Versa.

One Year Ago I Did Not Use CHROME Yet, And Used FF 99% And IE 1% Of The Time.

Now, I Use CHROME 94%, FF 5% And IE 1%.

Thank You.

No. v12

B - Have You Used The 'Check For Updates' Option Lately ?
Nope. On Auto with notification.

C - Have You Read The 'Urgent' Notice To The Very End ?
Not sure what you're talking about.

D - Is FF Forcing Old DieHards, Like Me, To Upgrade To The 'Latest And Greatest' ?
Given that rate at which they are pushing out updates, I would say YES. Although, updates generally mean fixes and improvements for the end user. Most importantly the vulnerabilities it fixes.

My Browser usage pattern:

Chrome and FF - 80%
Opera - 19%
IE 9 - 1%

@ReviverSoft

You Can Only Understand The ( C ) Question, If You Answer Yes To Questions ( A ) And ( B ).

Since You Use The Latest Version, No ( C ) For You.

Cheers.
