    FF 3.0.5 has been very stable for me.

    However, I keep running into situations where pages don’t render correctly. Also a lot of issues with Google Reader displaying a “loading” message and won’t complete or Blogger not accepting a comment post I make somewhere.

    I’ve found that the solution is ALWAYS to clear the FF cache.

    Anyone else seeing these issues?
