did firefox's much hyped incremental update feature work for you when updating to the just released 1.5.0.1 version??
well as for me,the update was downloaded but not applied due to repeated errors.So had to download the whole package(1.5.0.1)again and manually install .

hmm, seems like it worked for everyone, only a little bit slow

for me, it downloaded a 750 KB file, thats all,

Never Had a Problem with FireFox, even before and after 1.5.0.1


Got hooked to this browser in the initial stages and have been in love with it ever since.

Now, can you please tell me the intent of the thread, since except for Single line posts, there is nothing much in this thread.....
