This is info, not a question; I have gone back to using version 3.6.16, as I found v. 4 not as good as the previous, and like to try v. 4 again when you have changed it.

You may be able to customise 4.0 to look and behave more like 3.6.

You may not find firefox 4 changing in ways you like, and you may find with the new rapid release cycles (I think they expect to get up to firefox 11 this year) that firefox 3.6 is not fully supported for as long as you may like.

If the problem is a lack of compatible add-ons that may improve as the add-on developers modify their own software.

(Message written from Firefox 5.0a2 )

Rather than just say you do not like Firefox 4, why not say what the specific problems are, someone may have a solutin/customisation, or you could consider trying to argue elsewhere for changes in the development strategy; or even try posting a bug asking for changes. (You would need to find discussions about the changes, and it may help if you could find others holding similar views)
