Running 3.6.10 on Vista and no problems here, well other than still being a resource hog.

No issues, is it a plug-in that is not acting right?

I've had nothing but problems as I keep getting app crashes on it but I think it might be my laptop more than it is firefox. Firefox used to be resource friendly, what happened??

Haven't seen a crash, but it does suck up memory quite a bit. Chrome seems to have a better footprint on memory management.

It seems to be fine now since I installed a bunch of OS updates. Maybe that had something to do with it.

Yeah Windows just had a huge patch release....There should be a service pack coming soon....FYI I would wait a few weeks to upgrade to the SP1 so they work out the bugs.

+1 Very wise advice. It's usually better to wait on things like that.
