Mozilla releases Firefox 3.0.4

Chicago (IL) - Mozilla updated its Firefox browser to versions 3.0.4 and 2.0.0.18, which promise to fix several stability and security issues, improved site identification and password saving tools, as well as support for eight more languages. Mozilla recommends all of its users to update their Firefox browsers to these latest releases.

Firefox 2.0.0.18 includes ten security fixes, with six marked as critical fixes. Firefox 3.0.4 fixes a handful of stability issues and plugs eight security holes, four of them marked as critical, such as bugs in the JavaScript engine, a vulnerability of local shortcut files and an issue that contributed to crashes with related to memory corruption.

Additional Extended Validation (EV) root certificates are now included and improve the browser's site identification tool. The internal public suffix list is also refreshed and now comes with an updated list of domain suffixes, which enables the browser to avoid privacy-damaging "supercookies" being set for high-level domain name suffixes, accurately sort history entries by site and highlight the most important part of a domain name in the user interface.

This Firefox release further expands the number of localizations for several languages, covering Iceland and Thailand, in addition to beta releases for the Bulgarian, Esperanto, Estonian, Latvian, Occitan, and Welsh languages. An issue where the IME input tool used to enter Japanese, Korean, Chinese and Indian characters by the Add Bookmark panel is also fixed as well as a problem that prevented some passwords which were saved using Firefox 3.0.2.

You can update Firefox via the browser’s Help menu or simply download the new software here.
