Fixed an issue with scripting of the Help menu.
Fixed a crash resulting from non-standard manipulation of XML stylesheets by extensions.
Fixed Aero Peek (taskbar previews) on Windows.
Fixed browser.link.open_newwindow functionality.
Removed the default handler for webcal since the site doesn't seem to be properly maintained.
Prevented some ways smart places queries could be abused for social engineering attacks.
Ported an upstream Skia fix.
Improved the origin-clean algorithm for canvases.
Improved the efficiency of certain types of memory allocations in the JavaScript compiler.
Changed the way the application update checker code is hooked up so it will not require a user to go idle before being activated.
