ralph_tran Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 site is getting hammered. They should have let different time zones download in shifts... haha. I'll bet no one in the world is actually downloading firefox. Just a bunch of people pressing F5 :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/643719-follow-the-release-of-firefox-3/page/5/#findComment-589490221 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashl Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 First one to post a screenshot of a working Firefox website homepage with Firefox 3.0 on there wins...

.Kompressor Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 they should've said that the download will start 30 minutes after 1 pm at 1:30pm whereby at 1pm they would post up the mirrors or they should've sent an email to everyone who pledged with the link to MIRRORS to download at that time. MIRRORS that count the record. Sounds like bad planning to me.

Warbucks81 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Majorgeeks has a few mirrors up and running. You can grab it from there, speed is pretty quick right now.

BoDEAN Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Never understood why people make this such a difficult process: IF YOU WANT 3.0 FINAL go to FILEFORUM.COM and download it. No wait, no "not loading pages" or 2.0.14 links. NOT too hard folks.

rpgfan Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Just because they have a page up that says "we're not ready yet", that doesn't mean the file isn't already in the appropriate directory on some/all of the releases mirrors. I just wget'd it 5 times, and that page was still up saying "we're not ready yet". :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/643719-follow-the-release-of-firefox-3/page/5/#findComment-589490267 Share on other sites More sharing options...
