Firefox 1.1 Preview

geekerati · 05-09-2005, 12:32 AM

Yes, tis time for another preview of Teh Fox of Fire! from the blind fanboy!

The article states that it will be released sometime within the next 6 months. It also emphasizes that it's an incremental improvement over 1.0, so don't think its the end-all, be-all!

The coolest thing I gathered from reading about this new version, seems to be the new algorithm for going backword and forward (cache), speeding up our browsing experience.

Could you please share why you've come to this conclusion? Less is more?

Old is gold.

Firefox 0.9.x > Firefox 1.x.x

I like the new firefox. But in my opinion Opera Rulez..( Its the Ferrari of Internet )

Nah Firefox > Opera
Personally though I dont know why Firefox is so popular... I like it, well because it's faster and more reliable than Safari and Internet Explorer.
On my pc, I find it annoying that Microsoft tries to force Internet Explorer on their users. They should just give up really, stop trying to make theirs better and just make Firefox standard.
Also, what is the difference between Mozilla and Firefox? Just the lightness of Firefox?
In overall, I think the hype is because Firefox does what it's supposed to, and it does it very well and simple.

There are currently two very serious security flaws with Firefox! They are rating this as extremely critical.

Watch yourself out there.

Turn off your JavaScript until the patch, as well being very careful what you install from the Web.

Edited: They have released 1.0.4 Release Candidate for Firefox. This should patch up the vulnerabilities.
