Firefox 3.0 (finally)

After waiting for what seems like ages, Firefox 3.0 has finally been released for general use by us mere mortals. While the new version looks almost identical to previous ones, the browser is faster, has much better security features and too many new features to go into properly here. Users will find this new browser feels very familiar and comfortable to use. You may notice that some of your "old version" Firefox Extensions (Add-Ons and Themes) are not compatible with this new version, but Firefox 3.0 will check and disable the incompatible ones for you. This will give you a chance to go to the Mozilla Add-Ons site and see what's new and what's been updated for use with Firefox 3.0. Anything you can't find an updated version of yet will surely be updated soon as the creators of these add-ons come up to speed with the new version. The latest version of Firefox 3.0 can be found here. It will be well worth your while to visit the Firefox 3.0 site and catch up on all the latest improvements to this latest version of Mozilla's Firefox.

This version of Firefox has been downloaded in huge numbers since it's very recent release for general use. Mozilla maintains a download counter showing up to the minute figures of downloads as they occur, and the frequency of "downloads per minute". If you find this sort of thing fascinating, the download counter can be accessed here. Enjoy!
