I just saw this yesterday and looked through the release notes. Seems the biggest problem is security device modules and java generated windows not working probably with mice...although original java windows inside the browser are reputed to work without problem...switching to 3.5 as soon as backups of main server system competed...

    I'm guessing the problems I have had today are as a result of installing 3.5 earlier on today. Browser crashes playing a game, leaving a ghost window.

    Although the funny error message almost made up for the crash.

    I put a couple screen shots in the photo gallery, of both the error message and the ghost window.

    I guess it could be the game, or the browser, or both combined.

    I was just getting the hang of that game too. Even though it was impossibly slow (on my computer with my connection), it was kind of fun. Nothing like throwing an Appletini at an opponent to make them drunk and on fire. Ha!

      I went back to 3.0.11 after reading the support area for Firefox. Lots of problems. Although my mouse worked fine. I did try the game after goin back, and the game crashed my system. So it probably has a LOT to do with the game (what happened that I posted about) but I didn't have the same error. And 3.0.11 is much faster for me.

      I even had TYPING LAG on 3.5 while trying to post on the Firefox support forums. TYPING LAG! I haven't had that since dial-up.
