Yikes . . . . . Have you not closed FF since you installed it? Just keep ctrl-t when you need to look at something new?

I'm running FF3 and at 173k on my piece of shite pooter, btw.

i had 7 tabs open, most were lite sites like google.com

worst part about it was, even if i closed all but one tab, the memory wouldnt go back to my system, it would just keep climbing.

why i went back to 2.0.0.16.

no, I seriously doubt that. I completely uninstalled FF, IE barely works. I know this computer needs work but damn, I know it can handle this crap.

Thats surprising. I haven't updated yet but that was one of the major issues with FF2 that was supposed to be fixed in FF3. Something about releasing the memory back to the system when it's not being used.

Yea, how long has it been? I've found that regular registry cleaning helps but nothing beats a fresh install once a year or so.
