Borked borked borked... - Version: 3.5.5, 11/7/2009 12:12PM PST

I <3 Firefox and generally recommend it to everyone, but this version is a real dog. Broke my TweetGrid, makes other sites not load completely or look really strange. Going back at least to the original 3.5 :-P

Firefox not prompting the update for 3.5.5 and not under check for updates - Version: 3.5.5, 11/7/2009 10:19AM PST

I updated to Firefox 3.5.3 when it was released on Speptmeber 9, 2009. Since the release of 3.5.4 I have gone to "check for updates under FireFox's help menu. Everytime it .t says "No updates found. There are no updates available. FireFox will check periodically for upodates"

Under release notes, it profiles version 3.5.3, but offers the possibility to update to 3.5.5.

What is the story?

Still can not display videos created in Quicktime X's Save for Web feature - Version: 3.5.5, 11/6/2009 08:24AM PST

Unfortunately this version of Firefox still can not display videos created by Apples Quicktime 10 'save for web' feature. This is Apple's recommended way for creating videos to post on web sites. Can someone at Firefox please look into this or work with Apple on resolving this? As someone who works with video as well as Apple Quicktime frequently this is now a major hassle and leading to major incompatibility issues.
