    I was a strict Firefox user but I recently switched to Google Chrome. I'm prohably gonna go back to FF. Thanks!

    Thorough, well laid out. I use FF11 now and have been with FF for about 4 years steady. I'm gonna stay with it! Thanks.

    Nice work! I have FF11 & my pages get stuck & I continually get a "Not Responding" message. :( Very frustrating! :/

    Try running Firefox in Safe Mode (i.e. running Firefox without add-ons), it will help you determine if your add-ons are creating this problem. In some cases, it may be that you have too many tabs open or too many applications open (i.e. memory issues).

    Nice job with this. I have used FF since sometime in late 2004 or early 2005 and never looked back, though I still had something for back-up if needed, but FF was always ahead of the game because of the tabs. I've used it with tons of add-ons and with none. I know how to go in and tweak (or totally screw up if you're not careful) the config settings and I've used it as is. It's hard to complain about something that's open source and has been for so long.

    I tried Chrome a number of years ago and Opera but they both were awful, at least for the Mac. About a year ago I went tried Chrome again, just to have a decent secondary browser because Safari just isn't the greatest. I heard they made some improvements to user control and they did. Currently I use Chrome a bit more than I use FF just due to the tabs I have open on each. I love it and I am running version 17.0. blah blah blah and FF 10.0.2. I ran the Peacekeeper on them and Chrome's result total doubled FF's but I have to wonder what it all means because I ran them simultaneously and I couldn't see a difference in the performance. The major difference in the numbers looked like a missing video component that FF didn't have at all but other than that the performance nor the graphic quality suffered on FF's side. It makes me wonder if it's like Google's email storage ~ no one needs that much, but it's a nice gimmick to offer people. Either way, I like them both and often find when one is slow they are both slow or if I can't access something on Chrome I can on FF or vice versa...seems like it's just the way of the Net. :)

    All the same, this terrific lens is more than worthy of a Flyby Winging and it can be found among the other blessed lenses for today at Have Wings Will Bless More! They may call me an aimless wanderer, but not all who wander are aimless and I'm glad my aim was good when I wandered upon this. ~Ren

    Your thorough feedback on your experience with Firefox and Chrome is much appreciated. I'm still using Firefox more than Chrome which I use pretty much exclusively for Squidoo purposes (I find it much faster). Yeah initially, I liked FF for their tabs as well. With regards to the Peacekeeper results it's best to run them separately without any other applications running as well as all the cache and history cleaned before running. Different systems will produce different results. Thanks for the SA blessings as well!
  • girlfriendfactory Mar 13, 2012 @ 8:43 pm | delete
    I ran them simultaneously this time just to be able to watch them since I have long since forgotten what so much of technical things mean. You know how it is: Use it or lose it! My degree is gathering dust and my memory is filled with trying to remember other important things like how to type and what my name is and did I eat breakfast today. ;) I still do my important things on FF ~ anything that is sensitive in nature since every time I close Chrome it wipes out my exceptions list and I haven't messed with it enough to figure out how to keep a block list in tact. My block list on FF is extensive to say the least. Like you, I do Squidoo on Chrome, plus FB and Pinterest. Thank you for stopping by to see me as well. I need to stop in to visit your Chrome lens and a few others I'm just short on time since it's Spring Break for my son this week. :D
  • ajgodinho Mar 14, 2012 @ 11:38 am | delete
    I run the test simultaneously as well sometimes. With regards to the exceptions list in Chrome, maybe they are set on the "current session only" option. Enjoy the Spring Break with your son! :)

    Yeah, some websites work better on specific browsers, that's one of the reasons I use, both Firefox and Chrome. Occasionally, I'll use Internet Explorer. Thanks for the blessings and stay blessed!

  • ajgodinho Feb 1, 2012 @ 2:19 am | delete
    Yeah, IE has been losing ground slowly, but surely and in the past little while, so has been Firefox. Overall, Chrome seems to be gaining most ground.

  • ajgodinho Jan 20, 2012 @ 1:56 am | delete
    LOL yeah, I remember Netscape too...a long time ago.Internet browsers have come a long way since then. IE is still the most widely use, but losing ground to Firefox and more recently, Google Chrome.
  • BrowserBoy Jan 16, 2012 @ 4:05 pm | delete
    Can you believe it...irefox just came out with another releaqse and had the audacity to send me a notification....why don't I just shoot myself in the foot instead.
  • ajgodinho Jan 17, 2012 @ 10:10 am | delete
    Hi BrowserBoy, yeah, with the Rapid Release updates, we can expect Firefox to have new release versions approximately every 6 weeks. I have changed my options (under the Advanced tab) so it doesn't automatically update to the latest version. I generally test the new FF updates on my backup laptop and only update once I know that my main Add-ons are compatible. I've found Firefox 9 to be better than Firefox 8, but still lacking in some areas. The problem with using earlier versions is that Firefox doesn't provide support for those any longer (except for Firefox 3.6.x) and more importantly they have security and safety vulnerabilities.
  • BrowserBoy Jan 17, 2012 @ 10:55 am | delete
    aj...I understand you are diligently trying to make Firefox work for you by doing the regression testing that they should be doing before they put their software debacle out to the public.
    Again...they have allowed the developers to ruin a great product and have applied little or no quality control and basic management principles.

    Everyone should be very cautious before loading any new versions. BTW, it doesn't matter that they don't support earlier versions of the software, they work!
    The best of luck to you and Happy New Year.
  • ajgodinho Jan 18, 2012 @ 11:11 am | delete
    I hear you, BrowserBoy. You're right, I'm trying to make Firefox work for me 'cos I still like the browser despite some of its kinks. So far so good. I use both FF and Chrome, as well as IE occasionally. Though, my preference is Chrome. Yes, the FF older versions are still operational. Thanks for your input and wishing you the best in 2012 as well...much success!

    Hi Anthony well I have come back to read your review of 9 I hope I have more luck with that than I had with 8 but then we don't know whether it is 8 or if it is just me
  • ajgodinho Jan 2, 2012 @ 12:23 pm | delete
    Firefox 9 is better, but still lacking in overall performance as compared to earlier versions. I sometimes feel like reverting back to Firefox 7.0.1. Google Chrome, on the other hand, is becoming more popular.
  • akumar46 Jan 1, 2012 @ 3:31 am | delete
    I use Firefox for browsing from the very beginning.Now I am using Latest version and it gets slow more often as compared to earlier versions.
  • ajgodinho Jan 1, 2012 @ 2:28 pm | delete
    The last couple of Firefox updates haven't been their best ones. Firefox still uses a lot of memory, so it can slow down depending on the computer's resources.
  • darciefrench Dec 31, 2011 @ 6:13 pm | delete
    Yes, Firefox is my favorite browser, thanks for the awesome write up :)
  • Mahogany Dec 28, 2011 @ 9:49 am | delete
    I used to LOVE FireFox. It's a pity that these days it's more of a memory hog on my system than a joy to use :0
  • ajgodinho Dec 31, 2011 @ 1:07 pm | delete
    True, Firefox does use a lot of RAM compared to Google Chrome. One way to reduce the RAM usage is to decrease the number of add-ons being used.
  • Mahogany Jan 3, 2012 @ 9:33 am | delete
    That's the thing, I only use ONE add-on for Firefox, so that's how I know that the browser itself is a memory hog (well, that and that fact that I uninstalled that one and still nothing changed in its speed). Thanks for the tip though ajgodinho :). Happy New Year, by the way.
  • ajgodinho Jan 4, 2012 @ 10:04 am | delete
    I've also found recently that some plug-ins (apart from add-ons) can slow down Firefox - same with some toolbars. A couple of days ago, I ran Firefox in safe mode and saw considerable increase in speed and especially with my Hotmail. But I agree, the performance of Firefox has decreased since the last two upgrades. Happy New Year to you too! :)
  • lindseythomas Dec 27, 2011 @ 10:05 pm | delete
    I have tried using the Firefox 8.0 but I don't like it. Some other add-ons that I use for my tasks are not compatible with it so I stick with my old one. So I don't have any plans upgrading my browser as of yet.
  • ajgodinho Dec 31, 2011 @ 12:47 pm | delete
    I agree, Firefox 8 was not their best upgrades and Friefox 9, though better, is still lacking in some areas. These rapid releases have caused much pain to users and vendors, but I think overall, Firefox has come a long way and will continue to improve. In the meantime though, Google Chrome is catching up real fast!

    Hi Anthony, I just downloaded Firefox 9.0.1.exe and it seems to be working faster than the one I had before. I was checking to see if you had any information on this one yet. This is a very helpful lens and I think that it is wonderful. Blessings.
  • ajgodinho Dec 23, 2011 @ 1:12 am | delete
    Hi Laraine, yes, Firefox 9 was out on December 21st and I just updated this lens with a brief review on it. I have updated one of laptops with Firefox 9, however, I will wait to update my main laptop since some important add-ons are not currently compatible. Overall, I think Firefox 9 is better than Firefox 8. I only hope there could be a solution to the add-on compatibility issue, which I think we will see in Firefox 10. Thanks much for your SA blessing!
  • collettehrock Dec 6, 2011 @ 5:30 am | delete
    Hi Anthony well I have both now but couldn't get the other ones so will use Chrome for Squidoo and Firefox for some of the tools that you can't get on Chrome, I love the whole concept behind Firefox though. This is another one of your really great lenses where you help people out thank you
  • ajgodinho Dec 6, 2011 @ 10:51 am | delete
    Hi Collette, with downgrading Firefox to a version earlier to Firefox 8 and using SquidUtils, you have to ensure you use the compatible version for the add-ons for the workshop and toolbar. I sent you an email. Yeah, I find Squidoo works better for me on Chrome rather than Firefox. I use Chrome for Squidoo and Firefox for other online stuff.
  • skiesgreen Nov 30, 2011 @ 4:22 am | delete
    Love Firefox. Been using it for years and it's security and memory is fantastic. Great lens.
  • BrowserBoy Nov 28, 2011 @ 5:32 pm | delete
    I have been a firefox user from the beginning. however, I have found that the releases of late have been flawed, poorly release tested, and a significant problem with bookmarks.
    i have a problem statement in now identifying that I have lost partial bookmarks and would like a solution for retreving tem. no word from firefox.
    this software is not what it used to be and I am switching to Chrome.
  • ajgodinho Nov 29, 2011 @ 11:28 am | delete
    I can understand your frustration with the new Firefox rapid releases which they started implementing in early 2011. Overall, the new releases have worked well for me and I've seen improvements. However, I have to admit that the latest Firefox 8.0 release was not their best and having used it for over 2 weeks now, some websites run slower for me. For example, my Hotmail has a delayed response and it is probably due to the Java Console extension which is not compatible with FF8.

    I've had no issues with Bookmarks when upgrading to Firefox 8.0. I generally backup my Bookmarks at least once every month. Hopefully this help article on Lost Bookmarks will help you.
  • BrowserBoy Dec 1, 2011 @ 3:34 pm | delete
    AJ:
    thanks...I back up my BM tooo...but that was not the issue. The issue was that some NOT ALL bookmarks were missing and how do you just add the missing to an ongoing list of BM's?
  • ajgodinho Dec 2, 2011 @ 1:21 am | delete
    Hi BrowserBoy, maybe a clean uninstall and reinstall may help in your case. Given that you back up your BMs and hopefully your Profile too, it should not be a major problem. I'm assuming you've already tried the restore feature with your BMs.
  • BrowserBoy Dec 2, 2011 @ 10:04 am | delete
    Maybe you are not fully aware of the protocol and logistics of what occurred, how it occurred, and the actual problem that was a result.
    I am not missing ALL of the bookmarks only some (?)...why and how to resolve it is the question.
    Squidoo, your suggestion was the 1st I discounted when the problem was apparent, because I have added additional BM's that will disappear in either a restore or a clean uninstall and reinstall.
    Thanks for the interest though.......still waiting on Firefox to address this issue that others have fallen victim too as well.
    Let me know if you can think of anything that works.
  • ajgodinho Dec 2, 2011 @ 12:43 pm | delete
    BrowerBoy, I don't think there is a simple solution to your BM issue given that you need to merge your old BMs with your new BMs.

    One way to merge your old BMs with your new BMs is by using the Firefox Sync feature. Of course, you will need two computers to accomplish this or a smartphone (both set up with Sync).

    Alternatively, if you a have your BMs backed up in HTML format, you can use the import function to merge your old BMs with your current BMs. See this help article on Backing up & Restoring Bookmarks. This will add your old BMs to your existing BMs, though not the ideal solution because it will create a new folder with all your old BMs.

    Also, check this solution on Merging two or more Bookmarks.

    I used to really enjoy Firefox, but have recently switched to Chrome because I got tired of getting new update notices. It seemed like they were coming out with new patches and versions of the browser every few days.
  • ajgodinho Nov 20, 2011 @ 4:42 pm | delete
    Thanks for your feedback. I can understand your frustration with Mozilla's Rapid Release versions that have been coming in rapid succession since early 2011. Most of the new version have had improvements, but the recent Firefox 8 seems to have slowed down response on some of my websites. I still use Firefox most, but for Squidoo purposes, I stick with Chrome mainly because of its speed.

    Sorry to hear that Firefox 4 upgrade hasn't worked for you. It may have to do with the specs of your computer. I use FF4 for most of my browsing and it works well, but for Squidoo, I use Google Chrome because of its speed. Maybe you can try some under-the-hood hacks to enhance the performance of your Firefox browser.

    I downloaded Firefox 4, too, but I went back to 3.6 because certain add-ons that are essential to me were incompatible with 4. As soon as these add ons are updated I will move up to 4 again, because I did like it.
  • ajgodinho Jun 3, 2011 @ 6:34 pm | delete
    Yeah, that the only downfall to being quick to upgrade. I don't use too many add-on so I had only a couple that were not compatible. Hopefully the ones you use will be updated soon, because I find Firefox 4 better, overall.
  • aj2008 May 29, 2011 @ 5:48 am | delete
    I use Firefox and updated to Firefox 4 - now I wish I had not as my fav add-ons have not yet been updated and they were important to the way I work on the internet.
  • ajgodinho May 29, 2011 @ 11:21 am | delete
    I agree, that is one of the issues one faces when updating to a newer version. I mentioned that point in my review section. Some of my add-on didn't work as well, however, slowly but surely they are being updated. What you can do it install the Add-on Compatibility Reporter and submit a report so the author of the add-on can update it.

    i use flock browser, which is firefox cousin. Both of them are based on mozilla engine. But since Flock will stop supporting there browser, I will probably start using ff4. I can't work without some add-ons that chrome doesn't support yet.
  • javrsmith Apr 12, 2011 @ 5:01 pm | delete
    I love the flexibility of FireFox with the plugins. I can't seem to get used to Chrome. IE was a disaster with all of the lockups. I may start trying Chrome more often because I have seen slowness with FireFox. I'm running FF 4.0.
  • ajgodinho Apr 12, 2011 @ 5:13 pm | delete
    Firefox 4 has been working better for me compared to FF 3.6, so I'm satisfied with it. However, for Squidoo I exclusively use Google Chrome, especially if I'm editing lenses or building new ones. It's still faster than FF 4.0, however, the type of computer you're using may determine the performance as well.
  • hlkljgk Apr 6, 2011 @ 10:58 am | delete
    i really love the flexibility of firefox and its addons. chrome is definitely faster, but just doesn't have all the perks - yet. unupdated addons is why i haven't started using ff4. well, that and the tab bugs.

    Yeah, if you're a Firefox fan, you're gonna love Firefox 4. The only thing is if you've got a lot of add-ons, especially ones you can't do without, make sure to check and see if compatible version are available. Eventually, most of them will be compatible, but there may be some waiting. I'm enjoying using FF4!

    Thanks for the review, AJ. I heard about the FireFox 4, but haven't downloaded it yet. I will be doing that soon, but I do have a question for you. Will my bookmarks be transfered to the new version?
  • ajgodinho Mar 28, 2011 @ 11:49 pm | delete
    Hi Susie, yes, when you upgrade to Firefox 4 it should automatically carry your Bookmarks over to the new version. However, it's a good idea to backup your Bookmarks before you upgrade. See the instructions for backing up your Bookmarks. Let me know if you have any questions. I will send you a quick email as well.
  • kajohu Mar 28, 2011 @ 9:21 pm | delete
    I recently downloaded FF 4.0, and it seems to be working well, but one of my most useful add-ons from my earlier FF version doesn't work with FF 4.0. Unfortunately I forgot its name....but it helped me add simple HTML for Squidoo lenses. I'm also trying out Chrome, and haven't decided which I prefer most.
  • ajgodinho Mar 29, 2011 @ 12:07 am | delete
    Yeah, unfortunately some of the Firefox add-ons from the 3.6 version are not compatible with FF4, however, you will see them being updated in the following days and weeks. If you go to the Add-ons section within your FF browser, you should be able to see which one it is. It will be grayed out. If not, you can use the search box in the Add-ons page and should give you various options.
  • capriliz Mar 28, 2011 @ 4:48 pm | delete
    I was brave and downloaded FF 4.0 the other day. Usually I wait until the beta period is over, but I am glad I didn't wait. FF 4.0 is faster, and because I had been using Chrome for some of my work, I am accustomed to the tabbed feature.
  • ajgodinho Mar 28, 2011 @ 5:01 pm | delete
    I was impressed overall with Firefox 4 by the improvements they've made over the version 3.6. Yes, with betas you just never know, in fact, there were a total of 12 Firefox betas and that hurt them a bit. All the add-ons are not compatible yet, but thankfully Fluff has upgraded the SquidUtils toolbar and workshop add-on to be compatible with FF4.
  • Retro_Loco Mar 11, 2011 @ 9:06 pm | delete
    I'm a Firefox junkie! I've tried Netscape, Internet Explorer, Safari and Chrome. Firefox is by far the best in my opinion. I have several awesome FF addons that I would hate to do without. I also use multiple profiles which makes my work much easier. I got carried away with the multiple profiles for a while and had too many. Now I have one for work, one for household/personal use, one with for techy stuff (mostly Mac hacks & FF addons that I want to refer to later) and a test profile where I download new addons and apps before downloading them to my main profiles. In addition to those, I did have a separate profile for webdev and one for marketing, and my household stuff and personal stuff had their own profiles. How many was that, anyway? TOO many! I love being able to customize my computer and my browser! Terrific lens -- looks like you put a lot of hard work into it!! Have a great weekend! ~Vicki~

    Appreciate your feedback very much, Vicki! Looks like you are a die-hard fan of Firefox. Yeah, I agree the add-ons. I like the system you've put in place with your multiple profiles...very organized! So far my best browser, even though Chrome is getting better every time! :)
