Firefox 1.5 will be released today. Most localized builds are ready. Just waiting on 3 server side fixes, release notes, start page redirect and addons.mozilla.org links for extensions to get more info. All easy fixes, then upload the builds and then trigger auto update. Remember could take up to 24 hours until your firefox checks for updates (only Firefox 1.5 beta 2, rc1 and rc2 users)...so manually go to Help->Check for updates.

Check here for release:

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/1.5/

once this folder is created, release will be within two hours or so.

or a few hours after these are fixed.

If you are on 1.0.X you will get the notification button in the toolbar and you will have to do the full update. Just like how the security updates are from like 1.0.6 to 1.0.7...which really sucks. But after you guys get 1.5 you won't have to worry about that and firefox will get updated a hell of a lot more. Security fixes within hours via binary patching...also same for releases.

oh ok, in that case firefox checks for an update every 24 hours. now depending on how you have you settings in options menu, firefox could check tomorrow morning, download 1.5, and on next restart update. or you could get notification that update is out, ask what you want to do, then so on. so it depends on your settings.

Can i have a download link for firefox RC2 and can i just do an update or have i got to transfere settings ect?

Uninstall firefox first (your profile will be fine) and install 1.5rc2. Becuase updating from 1.0.7 to 1.5 becuase of the way 1.0.x updates will do the same thing.

    • The better these AI models get, the more this is going to happen. It's gonna turn into government versus government in regards to using proprietary and unavailable security research models to basically find flaws and vulnerabilities in other governments or companies systems. It's basically turning into a cybersecurity arms race. This is actually a good thing. The better AI gets, the more restricted and expensive it's going to become, making it far less mainstream. This is good 👍
    • Crazy. The government fired everyone who was capable of actually understanding this. More security theater. Just checked it is gone from Claude.

    • Quantum Error Correction Validated in Nature: Microsoft and Quantinuum Log 800-Fold Improvement Two years after the original press-release announcement, independently peer-reviewed results published in Nature on June 10, 2026, have confirmed that Microsoft and Quantinuum achieved an 800-fold reduction in quantum error rates on real trapped-ion hardware — the largest gap between physical and logical error rates ever independently validated.    What Quantum Error Correction Actually Does — and Why Breaking Even Is Hard https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318329/20260613/quantum-error-correction-validated-nature-microsoft-quantinuum-log-800-fold-improvement.htm   Quantum Computing Wiring Bottleneck Cracked by HKU Silicon Carbide Chip at Qubit Temperature Engineers at the University of Hong Kong have built the first cryogenic control chip that operates at the same temperature as superconducting qubits — 10 millikelvin, or just one-hundredth of a degree above absolute zero — without generating the heat that has forced every competing approach to park its electronics hundreds of meters of cable away. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318325/20260613/quantum-computing-wiring-bottleneck-cracked-hku-silicon-carbide-chip-qubit-temperature.htm
