Official Firefox 3.5 Final download goes live
Mozilla had made it known that today would be Firefox 3.5 day and it’s a good thing — if you’re like us, you just can’t take the wait anymore. Rejoice! Mozilla has officially made Firefox 3.5 Final available in all of its speedy, tab tearing, private browsing, Javascript gobbling, plugin-less video playing glory. Release notes aren’t yet available but the download link is live and the new build is fantastic… So, umm, what are you waiting for?
UPDATE: Just a word of warning — we’re getting reports from several Mac users that 3.5 has issues with restoring sessions/tabs after exiting and reopening the browser. By issues, we mean it doesn’t work. Windows users are seemingly not affected.
UPDATE 2: If you’re having the problem mentioned above, go to Firefox > Preferences > Privacy [tab]. If “Clear history when Firefox closes” is checked, click on Settings and uncheck “Browsing History”.
Running Firefox 3.5 Linux version here. Did not really notice speed improvement as it was already acceptably fast enough for me in 3.0.11 version.
Updated to Firefox 3.5 from 3.0. Feel it just a bit faster, however now I have a BIG issue with the session saving, as mentioned, it doesn’t work! I tried it on Windows XP and Windows Vista, same issue. I’ll try the possible fix and report even though it seems like solving that will mean less privacy (not good).
Been lookin for this for 4 days hope yer website is legit….guess well find out now….
