The Mozilla developers have released the final version of Firefox 3.5.7. The latest version of the popular web browser is currently transferred to mirror servers worldwide to ensure another error and lag free updating experience for Firefox users who will begin to update their web browser shortly after the official announcement of the release has been made.
It is expected that the announcement will be made later today and that Firefox 3.5.6 browsers will pick up the new version release and prompt their users to upgrade the browser.
The beta release notes classify the upgrade as a performance and stability update. It fixes three bugs of which one has been classified as critical and two as major.
Fixed a common stability issue.
Fixed a problem with how updates were being presented to users.
Firefox users who do not want to wait that long should monitor popular software download portals like Betanews or MajorGeeks as these are usually the first to offer the new Firefox version for download.
