Firefox auto- installed on my PC today, and promptly lost all of my
bookmarks.

Also, the 'Add book mark' window does not work anymore. I add the book
mark, and a little window comes up in which you are supposed to click 'ok'
to add the book mark. I click OK, and nothing happens.

People may give microsoft ****, but this is pretty damn bad too.

FF doesn't autoinstall, you always have to click OK in a dialog box.

Not many (sane) people give MS **** for bugs in pre release versions.

FF 1.5 hasn't been released yet, and 1.5 will be the first version with
any auto updating. Being the good beta tester you are, I assume you filed
a bug report?

The lastest install broke Flash for me. It hasn't annopyed me enough
to **** around trying to fix it though. I just pop Explorer open the
odd time there's flash I really want to see

I don't like FF. On my 1GHz computer it takes forever to load compared to IE
and opera.

Still it wiped out my bookmarks which is the real issue.

I am not a beta tester - this downloaded itself, and said 1.5 is ready.

When I go about to see the version, I get....

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1. Gecko/20051111
Firefox/1.5

Looks like 1.5 to me.
