the isohunt mirrors are being monitored by myself and my backup sysadmin, spike... everybody should be awake to make sure we're in good shape.

FF3 is scheduled for release at 10am PST (GMT-8 )

If your out side the time zone like me, go to your profile, go to time zone and set it for GMT-8 and you should get the right time zone on isohunt. ie it is 12.27 18th here in australia, but GMT-8 time its 6.27 am 17th

If anyone is interested....First impressions of firefox 3 after 5 mins use: It seems noticeably faster than ver 2.x (maybe thats just psychological !!???). 2 thumbs up from me........Thanks again for the fast download too Isohunt....cheers

Isohunt and our friend SecretSquirrel may have been on the ball for the event, but it seems Mozilla wasn't as prepared.

I had the same problem, I right clicked on the browser bar, click customize, nothing brought the buttons back , but when I ticked the use small icons they magicaly appeared somehow, but were two small for me, so I unticked it, they went big and stayed, go figure Rolling Eyes
