Why does Firefox not first warn its users when it offers an update that the user may experience hangs, crashes and/or not be able to watch vidoes, etc. after installing the update?

I have been experiencing an ongoing battle with my Firefox during the past year or so, which always seems to occur any time I update to a new version of Firefox. When Firefox offered its latest update (to 3.6.15) I assumed that they had fixed most of the bugs reported in the previous version(s). I was wrong. I am now having problems once again (this after I finally had fixed the problems from version 3.6.14). I am so angry at myself for updating to 3.6.15! :( Considering the fact that a lot of people are reporting problems after updating to new versions of Firefox, I find it a bit immoral of Firefox to not first "warn" its users of the many potential problems that can occur when it offers the updates. Instead, they claim that the new version is better, but in fact, it really is not and many people (like me) wish they had never updated. I only hope Firefox gets on the ball and finally realizes that it needs to stop inconveniencing its users like this.

Have you considered the Flash update which was released a few days before the Firefox 3.6.14 update may be a big part of this problem?

Try re-installing the 10.1 r102 version of Flash and see how it Firefox is.
