When are we likely to see the Chrome-like UI changes appear in the nightlies, or were those mock-ups just ideas that won't necessarily be implemented?

Is that similar to what the Fire does? What makes it lovely?

The experimental version of Adblock Plus has no trouble with YouTube ads.

For those who've been using the non-release channels, how much (if any) increase in responsiveness have you noticed on SPDY-friendly websites?

I don't have any first-hand experience, but the Security Now podcast covered SPDY in their latest episode if you're interested. http://www.grc.com/securitynow.htm

And I'll give you a benchmark which I also cover at the end of this explanation: They've got it running so that the average of the top 25 websites load in one-third the time.

I have an issue.

I usually don't have this type of problemn but for some reason I've got Babylon search installed on my Firefox. How the eff do I remove this? Had a fiddle about in settings and changed my search to no avail.

Have a look for an entry for it in Add/Remove programs.

I hadn't considered that actually, thanks.

Yeah, no avail :(

Look through the solutions which detail how to reset the Babylon entries in about :config. That should sort it out.

My work has Facebook blocked, so any sort of Facebook integration on a website won't work and displays an error. Firefox 12 is jumping to wherever the error message is being displayed on the webpage once it's done loading. Is there a way to stop it from jumping to the error? Previous versions didn't do this.

There's an extension which blocks those social media embeds, but I can't think of its name. I know of Ghostery, and Facebook Disconnect. Maybe they can block whatever is causing the error before it loads.

Please tell me more about the icons between the Aurora button and the tabs. It looks like a g-mail pinned tab? I tried pinning g-mail, but mine doesn't show the unread message count. Also, what are the silver square with the asterisk in the middle, and the green circle?

The green circle is icon is for Web of Trust. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/wot-safe-browsing-tool/

Showing the unread email count in the g-mail tab, may require an extension like this one: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/better-gmail-2/

That's plain odd; I get it in the context menu (along with all the other toolbars) when I right-click the menu bar, the navigation bar, or the tab bar. (Also my extra toolbar, which I forget how I got in the first place.)



The option was removed in version 15.
