New Firefox 1.0.5 Candidate Builds

Update:
We took one more fix yesterday, so we have a new set of 1.0.5 candidates - please use the 7/8/05 builds.

Here are the links to the candidate builds for testing:
Windows
Linux
Mac

Here are the key areas to test in this build:
* Turn off JavaScript - make sure behavior is expected
* Open lots of large images
* If you use Thunderbird mail, create new accounts and open attachments
* Right clicking on content in general
* Hosting XPIs
* Launch the browser from external applications and make sure it works, including checking your tab settings

Other things to try:
(1) Logging into Yahoo mail, GMail or any web services (online banking sites, etc)
(2) The Adblock extension, as well as other popular extensions that show up on UMO.
(3) Keyboard shortcuts and using the arrow keys for navigation through various menus and dialogs

If you find issues, please post them in this blog. Before filing bugs in Bugzilla, try to check to see first if a bug has been filed. There is a link of the main Bugzilla page called "Hot Bugs" which references the most frequently filed bugs.

Will you be wanting all those early-posting folks in bug 300028 to be retesting with newer builds?

This build seems faster, but it maybe just me, playing tricks on myself. I am sad that this bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=223542 is not fixed though, lots of websites seem to use text ads like that and it impairs my browsing expierence.

The installer still creates the desktop, quick launch and start menu shortcuts when specifically told not to with the Windows installer.

Dave W: Bug 245392: Update/install adds unwanted icons to desktop/quick launch. Fixed-on-trunk, will not be fixed on the 1.0.x branch.

Everything works great on each build except the Stockticker extension. It will not show the toolbar but you can access the add/edit feature but when applying changes it comes up with error. Works great in 1.0.4???

All seems to work except the "find in page" function.
it refuses to work for either links or normal text.
Reverted to 1.04 and find is working again.

in the about:config when "browser.cache.memory.enable" is set to "false", the tab shows the icon of the site, but does not render the page at all. on two sites i tried,

Flash Block extension white list no longer works. Works fine in v1.0.4.
Adblock 0.5.7+ seems to be fine.
Gmail works fine.
