Firefox 3.6 is old version.All users are Recommended upgrade to latest Firefox.
Firefox3.6 demonstrates Mozilla's ability to interate, improve and ship faster than previous release cycles. In the 7 months since 3.5, we have significantly improved both performance and stability. Much of the focus of this release is based on these improvements versus many new consumer-facing features.
The marketing efforts behind this release focus on updating our key user and developer touchpoints, engaging our community, and acquiring new users. In user messaging, we will focus on personalization (Personas) and security (Plug-in Updater).
What’s New in Firefox3.6
· Personas: To personalize the look of Firefox, select new themes called “Personas” in a single click and without a restart
· Plug-in Updater: To keep you safe from potential security vulnerabilities, Firefox now alerts you about out-of-date Plug-ins
· Stability improvements: In Firefox 3.6, we significantly decreased crashes by changing the way some third party software hooks into Firefox - all without sacrificing our extensibility in any way
· Form Complete: When filling out an online form, Firefox suggests information for fields based on your common answers in similar fields
What’s Improved in Firefox3.6
· Performance: We’re constantly optimizing Firefox for the way you use the Web – improving start-up times and responsiveness, making new tabs open up more quickly, and having the Awesome Bar provide results even faster.
· Open Video and Audio: With the world’s best implementation of HTML 5 audio and video support, now video can be displayed full screen and supports poster frames
What’s New Under the Hood for Developers in Firefox3.6
· Font Support: In addition to OpenType and TrueType fonts, 3.6 now supports the new Web Open Font Format (WOFF)
