Firefox 3.5 RC2 is out NOW:)


Recommended Posts

Would ya look at that.

For some reason when I went to go open it in the Firefox 3.5 RC1 it added some extra junk in the front of the URL that prevented me from opening it. I removed it, and was able to download it.

Once you put the link in, it should look like this:

http://www.ftp%3a%2f.com/ftp.mozilla.org/p....5%20RC%202.exe

Remove this:

http://www.ftp%3a%2f.com/

Then this should work:

ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.5rc2/win32/en-US/Firefox%20Setup%203.5%20RC%202.exe

EDIT: Damn Rogueosb, you beat me to it!

Couple of days yet at least.

Also I know English probably isn't your first language if you live in Moscow but it should be "When will there be a final release?"

No need for the uncalled for grammar police comments honestly. I do hope this release comes soon, looks like the speed increases in Java will be most welcome.

After running some tests and visiting my normal websites, it seems like RC2 is even faster than RC1.

I'm impressed with the performance improvements they are bringing to the table with Firefox 3.5.

    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
    • Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
