Firefox 10.0 - Released

[McLovin]

The Web is all about innovation, and Firefox sets the pace with dozens of new features to deliver a faster, more secure and customisable Web browsing experience for all.

User Experience. The enhancements to Firefox provide the best possible browsing experience on the Web. The new Firefox smart location bar, affectionately known as the "Awesome Bar," learns as people use it, adapting to user preferences and offering better fitting matches over time.

Performance. Firefox is built on top of the powerful new Gecko platform, resulting in a safer, easier to use and more personal product.

Security. Firefox raises the bar for security. The new malware and phishing protection helps protect from viruses, worms, trojans and spyware to keep people safe on the Web.

Customisation. Everyone uses the Web differently, and Firefox lets users customise their browser with more than 5,000 add-ons.

Yesterday I update stable version of Firefox to 10.0. But I prefer Firefox Nightly UX. My default browser is Pale Moon 9.1 and I wait again until she update to newer version.

I'm still looking forward like flashplayer bundle in that browser and own PDF viewer. Overall all changelog from Mozilla were thumbs up for me.

Still to frequent for me, it has to fix bugs that shouldn't be there in the first place maybe if they wasn't so rushy with it they wouldn't have to fix it i'm yet to see any major updates since 4

I've updated mine and switched to it because Chrome is not loading MalwareTips correctly and the tabs usually freezes whenever I visit the forums. Firefox 10 is much smoother than previous versions.

That's how rapid development cycle works so just all need was to bear with them just to maintain the product as efficient and working flawless. For stable is the preferred version for anyone does not want a frequent update since its follow on the cycle every 6 weeks.
