Firefox 3.0.1

APC's been slow--off and on--for about a week now.

I'm using the latest version of firefox and at times it takes a while to load... when that happens I just click like 7 times in a row and it then loads the page instantaneously... kinda like a Pilot Controlled Lighting airport

I don't have problems when I use IE. I gave up on Opera, though.

Firefox and IE on 100Mb on T3 still like a 172 T/O with toe-brakes applied!

Default Firefox good for APC now?

I switched to IE when all this slow loading trouble began some weeks ago, a major pain because I had to reorganize bookmarks plus it lets a ton of garbage lodge up in the computer. Firefox doesn't have that problem but as we know isn't compatible with APC. Firefox clears most of the tracking cookies off and in my opinion is a far better piece of software. Today I tried it again. Lo and behold no problem works like a champ...

Firefox is incompatible with this site, I'm afraid. I've quit using it and use Safari (on my mac) and Internet Explorer, and have since had no problems with slow page loads.

My Firefox seems to be running APC well again. They came out with several updates in a really short time frame, so perhaps the ship has been righted from both sides if you will.

Yeah it appears the storm has passed. Everyone should get their Firefox out and try it again. If your version of FF is not self updating, then it may still not be fixed since it appears the fix is very recent. I am getting 100% load speed on mine now.
