I was given an option to upgrade to Firefox 4, so I did. Ever since I have done this, Facebook is taking a very long time to load. All FB apps either take a few minutes to load or just dont load. I have tried to watch Youtube and the videos are taking longer to view. I have tried to watch videos and they keep skipping. I have tried to reload the page, restart my computer and even upgrade flash but I already have the updated version. I need to know if their is any way to downgrade back the the Fairfox version that I had.

Same problem I had with new firefox4, I went back to 3.0, is my favorite version for me. Videos are much better to view with this version and the speed over all is much faster then firefox4. Here is a link to download any version you want. http://www.oldversion.com/Mozilla-Firefox.html

Upgraded to Firefox4 too. Suddenly I started to notice that browsing pages in my webbrowser qaws horrible laggy and I was seriously wondering if my connection was acting up, yet everything non-browser related was working just fine.

I can't even watch music videos on youtube now, as it will only load up to a 3rd of the song and then just stop loading anything more untill I click on the bar on a spot it hasn't loaded, and then it will start from there untill it gets to a 'block' again.

In other words: totally unusable for me.

I tried uninstalling firefox4 and going back to the 3.6.17 version, but now the issues haunt me in that versino too. It's like firefox4 sunk its teeth into my system once, and then older versions won't work proper either :(

Seriously considering just getting a different browser to be able to actually BROWSE the web again >:(
