Firefox 1.5.0.2 Released

April 13, 2006

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Mozilla released a new version of Firefox today, version 1.5.0.2. While this release includes bug and security fixes as usual, the OS X version is now a Universal Binary, making it an imperative upgrade for Intel Mac users. I have been running the DeerPark beta of version 1.5.0.2 for about a month now just for its overall speediness as a UB. Download it for OS X here.

the change is nothing major- not shocking (visually) like 1.5 was, ofcourse.
