Why does every new release of firefox the past couple of months bring more and more bugs and less and less usability? Is firefox dying? It sure feels this way. Please get your QA back into line :(
The quality of FF is degrading more and more with each new update. Please freeze the 3.x line and do some QA before pushing broken products onto us. I'd rather have a working browser than some new spank under the hood. I'm sure EVERY ONE ELSE IN THE WHOLE WORLD wishes the same.

It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in safe mode (don't forget to select Disable all add-ons when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See this article for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and this one for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.
