Waterfox 9

[Nathan Wootton]

Waterfox 9 Released

Windows: If you'd like your web browser to run a bit faster, Waterfox is a Firefox clone built to run faster on 64-bit processors.
Mozilla still hasn't officially released any 64-bit builds for Firefox, and Waterfox aims to fill that void. It has one main goal: speed. They've tweaked a lot of Firefox's codebase to work better with 64-bit processors, so if you're running a 64-bit version of Windows, it should give you a solid speed boost. It also updates whenever Firefox does, so you're never behind, and uses your current Firefox profile, so you don't have to do any extra setup. All of your add-ons should work out of the box, too.


Waterfox has now been accepted as a project by Mozilla and has been placed on their website! Waterfox 9.0.1 has also been released, but at the moment is only available through the internal updating program available in Waterfox 9.0. This is to try and iron out any issues for the release of Waterfox.Next.

I using many internet browsers, but Waterfox is first 64-bit browser which I install.

I also use Pale Moon 64-bit, and 64-bit Firefox Nightly UX.

Even I test Opera 64-bit, but it is another story.
