(just tried firefox again and no go-ie still loads and plays fine) is firefox somehow trying to preload all the videos in an effort to be "faster"? good point! i’ve been using 3beta for a month, i guess, and really like it, but on pages with many videos (and sometimes just one main and other “snapshot” style videos, like my own, it won’t start the videos immediately after clicking play, won’t buffer quick enough to stay ahead of play, and the sound doesn’t start immediately even when the video does…) i don’t know how much of this happens on other browsers to a certain extent as well, but just now I opened same page in ie and videos are playing without a problem… (just tried firefox again and no go-ie still loads and plays fine)

Improved efficiency and memory management ... especially when it comes to embedded flash. Firefox is becoming a real pain on my PC and it seems to be getting worse and worse with every release. And every time I load a page with embedded flash video, Firefox starts to suck up memory which gets worse the longer the page is open. And forget about loading a page with more than 5 embedded flash videos. This is a serious problem in the days of YouTube and other flash video sharing sites. WAY MORE important to fix than making the location bar smarter at guessing what site I want to go to. I like Firefox better than IE and Safari. But I find myself using them more and more often due to the serious bloat issues of Firefox. Stop adding and start slimming it down please!

I don't know of an extension that allows to categorize search engines. Regarding the JavaScript resize. I think Firefox allows window resizing by default. You can check it: Tools menu?OPtions/Content page/Enable JavaScript/Advanced button. If the site doesn't attempt to resize the window you will need an extension. joe, thanks.

Time will tell, but as long as Opera and IE7 start-up faster with a smaller footprint (RAM and disk) Firefox is limited on how far it will reach.
