'''Firefox 6.0.1'''
* Some reports that Flash is "marked incompatible" in 6.0.1 and that some flash video isn't working.
** Actually "Adobe Flash Plugin 11.3.7.0" is a malware extension... *shrug*.
* Some dutch comments with "ID cards" not working but my Dutch is rusty.
'''Firefox 6.0'''
* New: Users are not sure where the Unsorted Bookmarks in the bookmarks menu comes from. (caused by {{bug|625325}})
* Everything else much the same as before
'''Firefox 7.0'''
* New: We may have broken session restore from about:home in a recent beta but menu still works.
* Loss of http is sad-making
