Mozilla Firefox - faster, more secure, easier to use and sporting a new look, this latest Firefox
release sets a new standard for web browser innovation. Mozilla Firefox project
(formerly Firebird, which was formerly Phoenix) is a redesign of Mozilla's browser component,
written using the XUL user interface language and designed to be cross-platform.
It is small,
fast and easy to use, and offers many advantages over other web browsers, such as the tabbed browsing
and the ability to block pop-up windows.
Mozilla Firefox 3 is focused on improved memory handling, performance, and stability, improved XUL,
and new core components such as application data stored in SQLite. Firefox 3 is based on the Gecko 1.9
Web rendering platform, which has been under development for the past 34 months. This new platform
includes more than 15,000 changes to improve performance, stability, rendering correctness, and code
simplification and sustainability. Firefox 3 is been built on top of this new platform resulting in
a more secure, easier to use, more personal product with a lot more under the hood to offer website
and Firefox add-on developers.
