How much i know about this, i think mozila not yet realeased 64 bit windows version of firefox uptill now. And 32 bit windows version is more safe and faster. If i talk about 64bit than it is being tested in recent months.

At this stage of development is seen as the first Mozilla support 64-bit editions of Firefox (for Windows) Firefox is 12.0. There is at a standstill much work to do to win is still stable 64-bit editions of Firefox. If it was so simple, then there would have been 64-bit Windows and is depends on Firefox 4.0. That was the goal of Firefox 8.0 in the beginning (late June), then probably at 10.0 (mid August) and now expect to get it done in 12.0.

Its like a, 64-bit compilation will not be ready yet, whenever it's get ready, assuming that Mozilla doesn't determin to abandon it.

I also do not like the Firefox 8.1 Characteristics to be installed - especially the changes to "tabbed browsing" as the placement of the tabs above the location bar and search tools. Not in my eyes are accustomed to seeking and I must move the mouse cursor to interact more with the chips. No win, you lose something. It looks like they made many changes for the sake of change. No change that I have noted so far is for the better, in my humble opinion.

It is so tough to develop a compilation that the 64-bit Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 was available in the Windows 7 public beta. Is installed on my computer with Windows 7 Professional (Full) since last April. Which means, it is not so hard to develop a 64-bit compilation - Mozilla is only 2 years or more behind the innovators. While I do not like IE 8 functions - or the lack of many that are useful - and it is the poor implementation of "tabbed browsing" in particular.

Ya, but it seems that Mozilla does not offer a browser to use, after all these years since Netscape and Firefox 1.0. What used to be truly alternative browser, is now being rebuilt as the browser we. They have failed miserably with Thunderbird 3 as well as an omen!
