Does any one knows how to change the Firefox 3 address bar to the way it was in Firefox 2x i.e. shows the full list of typed addresses instead of only a selected few it feels it should display?

Also I hate the fact that if I type something in the address bar and tries to auto fill using the title tags of the pages (which can be totally wrong) and kind of freezes up the browser.

Any way to fix this as well?

and kind of freezes up the browser.

So you also suffering from the same, I thought it is only me

[Yogesh Sarkar]

Yup, and that too when I have a dual core processor and 2GB of RAM of which almost 70% is free! It's quite frustrating at times, however Firefox has a few extensions which I use for work and I also love it's browsing speed, especially while browsing forums. However all this is forcing me to prefer using the IE7 at times!

Switch to Opera or Google Chrome. Firefox's v 3 is more time consuming.

[Yogesh Sarkar]

Don’t know why but never really liked Opera and Google Chrome has a few problems, I would rather use IE7 if I have to stop using Firefox.

donno, but that is the most beneficial to me. often i pick up old links because i remember a bit of the title. it does eat CPU but its worth it to me

PS: aap toh comp field waale ho, ek custom build kar do

Have already fixed the CPU issue while typing address with this addon, https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6227

Half way there, now I need something to fully restore the functionality of 2.x address bar.

[hitanshu]

Why not a simpler rollback?

[Yogesh Sarkar]

Don’t want to use the 2.x system because it is no longer in development, so in case there is a venerability which gets discovered, there won’t be a patch available for it and since I do most of my business (including financial transactions) through internet, it can be a big issue for me.

But hey, is the 2.x tree already unsupported? I thought they'd support it for atleast like an year or so more!
