Yesterday, FireFox 2.0 RC1 was released. Does anyone here use FireFox? If not you should try it out.

You can download it here: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/bonecho/all-rc.html

It's a really great browser. Some features include (List taken from FireFox's WikiPedia page):

* New Windows installer using the Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (NSIS)
* New anti-phishing features
* There are now several hidden options for how the tabs are displayed, and the close behavior is slightly different
* A history of recently closed tabs and the ability to reopen closed tabs
* Automatic restoration of the user's browsing session if there is a crash
* New default theme with new icons and a new tab bar design.
* Inline spell checking in text boxes and the ability to search in these areas.
* Search suggestions now appear in the search box auto-complete for Google and Yahoo!
* New search service that supports Sherlock and OpenSearch engines
* Combining the extensions and themes managers into an "Add-ons" manager, updating it to provide enhanced security and to allow for easier localization of extensions.
* New search plugin manager for removing and re-ordering search engines
* Improved support for previewing and subscribing to Web feeds (RSS and Atom)
* New microsummaries feature for bookmarks
* Support for Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) text using svg:textPath
* Client-side session and persistent storage

I really like the spelling feature (works even while you're browsing!) and it's great security features. Download it and check it out! biggrin.gif
