The latest release of Firefox, Mozilla’s open source web browser, was downloaded one million times in just over four days. Firefox has received many positive reviews because of its security and many advanced features, and has been rapidly gaining market share. Features include a highly effective pop-up blocker, integrated Google searching, and advanced privacy controls that make it easier to cover your tracks. Tabbed browsing allows you to open several pages in a single window, and a streamlined layout shows more web content than other browsers. It further comes with a JavaScript debugger and a DOM (Document Object Model) viewer. HTML source can be viewed with color-coded tags, and bookmarks can be loaded in a side panel. Firefox is also space efficient requiring only 55 MB. For more information visit the Firefox site.
