Firefox 1.5.0.3

[macmax]

Its under the 'releases' folder so its not nightly.

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

1.5.0.3

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/fir...leases/1.5.0.3/

But unlike 1.5.0.2 there is no folder called win32 instead 1.5.0.3 has update/ contrib/ contrib-localized/

I tried using the updater but it says no update available yet.

[macmax]

I guess the servers are being updated with the latest build and i suppose .mar to be temporary files.

[Lare2]

This one is just bug fixes right ? Or any feature i'm not aware off. I'll just wait until the official release to check it out.

[arrrgh]

.mar files are the ones that get installed via Firefox's updater.

1.5.0.3 is an unplanned release to patch a critical security bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=331981 (restricted access till the update is out).

[Storm]

Ah, thanks :D

Guess ill just wait till its released via the updater :D

why does firefox occupy so much memory if we try to open up 4 or 5 tabs ?? is it a normal behaviour or is there some bug fix for this ??

[canuckerfan]

any changelog?

There is a single security bug fixed in 1.5.0.3.

Versions found on ftp aren't final and subject to changes.

When it's officially released i'm sure ff autoupdate will let you know :)

[xpgeek]

Will wait for official and full installer.

[macmax]

This is official else it would have not been under the RELEASE folder. Yes firefox still says no update found, and waiting for a full release.

[L3thal Veteran]

Not official in terms of it being updated on the site, but that should be corrected shortly.
