Firefox 5 is buggier
I found at least two bugs while usingFirefox 5. Given below is summary.
1. The bookmark restoration does not work well. I restored by my my bookmarks from an earlier version of Firefox and now it will not restore any further.
2. Sometime the download manager does not not know where it stored its files. I was downloading a driver from a webpage and interrupted the download and then started the download all over again. Now the Firefox looses track of its download. Even though it is downloading the same file it does recognise this and does not inidicate it as a subsequent copy of the same file. When finished downloading it disables the download location context menu. I also could not locate the file myself on my filesystem.
