Since upgrading from FF 3.x to 8.0.1, I'm experiencing more hangs and crashes. Most recently, FF lost ALL OF MY OPEN TABS. Is there any way to get them back?

I had a TON of browsing history in those tabs and there is NO WAY I could recreate it all manually. Is there any possibility that FF could get them back even though the "Restore Previous Session" menu option is greyed out? BTW, I've had more hangs and crashes with 8.0.1 than with any previous version of Firefox.

Upgrade your browser to Firefox 9 and check

Did that inadvertently (can someone at Mozilla tell me if the download procedure has changed? I only wanted to download the new version, not install it right away, but it got installed with no input from me. I DO NOT APPRECIATE THAT. Starting to lose my love of firefox.)

Everything is just GONE. Thanks, firefox team, for nothing.

Also, this new version is a MEMORY HOG. Y'all are headed in the wrong direction. I'd switch back to IE now if I didn't have all my bookmarks the way I like them in firefox already. Leaning in that direction, though.
