not had time to fool with the RTM... also rumors are floating that there is a "Showstopping" error in it that will need to be fixed and pushed back out.

well get 3.5.5...no sense in waiting when there isn't anything wrong with it or any other updates for that matter. 3.6Beta is out too if you want it.


Also the updater is working to pick up this version too as of now..so it was pushed rather quickly!

Adobe Flash barfing more than usual. Seems to be quite a common problem with many peeps in other tech forums too. I'll hold my other rigs back on prior version for a while.

Is it an FF issue or a Flash issue?

Where is it barfing and what do you mean by barfing?

Usually seem to go hand 'n hand..probably 60% Adobe though. Historically FF has always been touchy with Flash ('n other plugins). Quite a few people that work with computers for a living also (like IT support) having issues with Flash on this latest FF update.

Using 3.6 Beta 2 at work. Not really sure what the differences are between 3.5.5 and 3.6 Beta 2 are yet. Nothing visually is jumping out yet.
