Try Chrome or downgrade to 15.0 FF. This latest release appears to be crap
at best. I didn't upgrade to the latest Firefox. I've noticed too much
racing to see how fast they can release a higher number without a care
about quality. I've noticed a huge difference between Firefox 3.1 and 15.0.
And, they still seem to have that Virtual Memory Leak, even though I'm on a
different computer from when I first started noticing the Virtual Memory
Leak.
