New Firefox Beta
September 9th, 2005 Posted in Browsers, Browsers/Firefox, Main Page
A beta 1 version of Firefox 1.5 has been released into the wild. According to Download Squad, the new version includes improved popup blocking, drag-and-drop tab shuffling (very cool!), improved Mac OS X
support, the ability to delete private data with a keyboard shortcut,
faster back/forward action, as well as bugfixes and security updates.
By the way, ZDNet
is reporting there is a new, unpatched flaw in all versions of Firefox
that “could let attackers surreptitiously run malicious code on users'
PCs”. Firefox has been downloaded more than 80 million times since it
was released last November.
