Firefox 3.0.7 Beta Released

Posted by jun auza On 2/27/2009
Before anything else, I would like to let everyone know why I failed to post an update for the last couple of days. Well, it’s been a hella busy week. I went to Manila for a visa interview and just celebrated my birthday among other things :-) I’m still not in the mood to write but I thought I should let you all know that I’m still alive and kicking.

Anyway, the first thing that greeted me upon my return is an update of Firefox. Since I am a Beta tester, my previous version of Firefox has been updated earlier than probably most of you. The 3.0.7 version has fixed some key issues:

* Fixed several security issues.
* Fixed several stability issues.
* Items in the "File" menu show as inactive after using the "Print" item from that menu - switching to a new tab restores them (bug 425844). This issue has been fixed.
* For some users, cookies would appear to go “missing” after a few days (bug 444600).
* Mac users of the Flashblock add-on, experienced an issue where sound from the Flash plug-in would continue to play for a short time after closing a tab or window (bug 474022).
* Fixed several issues related to accessibility features.

The stable version of Firefox 3.0.7 will be available for download on March 4, 2009.

    My flashplayer (*BUNTU, FF3 from repository) plays music after closing tab too and I've got used to that and considered it as normal.

    Do you think that this solves my issue?

     

  2. Anonymous Said,

    I also got Ubuntu FF3 from rep, the music plays for like a second longer, I don't consider this a major issue, lets wait for the update and see what happens.
    I checked the File-Print & inactive menu issue - it doesn't seem to exist in Linux.
