Just checked, I’m running FireFox 3.6.23.

Yesterday I installed what was supposed to be FF8.  Now I've got FireFox 3.6.24.  Great browser, but something screwy with the updater.

Thanks, CD. But that is something entirely different.

That doesn’t kill it either. I’ve tried that before when searching for a remedy.

Thanks.

BTW, I just checked. It is still set to ‘false,’ all these months later. I wonder what that field does if it doesn’t do what it is suppose to do.
