It’s the fastest load times I’ve ever seen. It’s very lightweight too … sometimes a good thing, sometimes a bad thing. I’m very lost with finding all the options and stuff without a menu bar. Looks like CTRL + B opens a bookmarks toolbar instead of a bookmarks window.

overall it is quite good.

re: Windows XP SP3 - Read all prerequisites for a successful installation

Carl - Thanks for sharing this great advice ... Yes, during installation it might be advisable to disable Antivirus software and also to not do anything else on the PC except to allow it to install in a dedicated mode.

I tried six times to install SP3. The download took forever, and each time, during installation, I hit a point where I got a screen saying that for SP3 Setup, "Access is Denied." With 9 hours on phone help from Dell, they figured out that I needed to disable both the Norton Antivirus and the SpySweeper, even though I asked about it a number of times. It finally installed. That caused my AOL software to get corrupted, and now I can't online with my PC. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling AOL, with no success. It constantly says it's missing files, so click "here" to restore the missing files, but it does nothing instead. I'm using a different PC in the interim until I can figure it out.

Hi - Yes, there are some compatibility issues in using SP3 that have been documented. HP systems for example have had issues, plus some AV products may not work well.

This search might help in finding support for these various issues:

My laptop does auto updates and when I did the update and came back to my laptop after a few minutes, my laptop went dead. It has power, but the screen is "black" and my mouse doesn't even come on. Why did this update distroy my laptop? It's like I have lost everything with no help. I wish I knew about these problems before hand and I wouldn't of even let this SP3 be downloaded. SO.....the question is? How the hell do I get my Laptop to work again? Microsoft needs to be held accountable for this and get me a Laptop or some sort of recall to get it fixed!!!

I continually fail to install XP SP3 with the same error every time... Not enough space. I have over 5 GB of disk left and yet it still tells me I need more space. I even removed a number of programs to get it to 8 GB left of disk and it still says the same thing. I just don't get it. And reading above all the bad comments, in some way I'm glad it didnt install. I will stay on SP2 until they fix the problem.
