Mozilla Firefox 3.o Beta may still be in the testing stage, but it is so far along, that it's final release will sometime this month (May 2008). In this latest version Mozilla has addressed the issue of the "memory leak" which caused previous Firefox edition to swallow up CPU and memory usage, especially with more then one tab open. However, for those of you who want it to use even less than what it already does, get the Firefox Ultimate Optimizer 1.1, which can be found on this site. Firefox also has a built in unsafe page identifier, that will stop you before loading a known dangerous site, and ask you if you wish to proceed.

Best:

Less memory usage, much faster loading of pages, safer surfing, autocomplete list include web addresses, bookmark and history, downloads can be paused & resumed & are automatically passed through your anti-virus program

Worst:

Not all Add-ons have been upgraded to work with Firefox 3 Beta, yet. Not much else that I can find.
