Firefox 2 has been released
YAY mind you i have been using the rc’s for a bit so nothing new to me 😛
However!
Here are SOME the new features for your eyes
-
Built-in phishing protection:
Phishing Protection
warns users when they encounter suspected Web forgeries, and offers to
return the user to their home page. Phishing Protection is turned on by
default, and works by checking sites against either a local or online
list of known phishing sites. This list is automatically downloaded and
regularly updated when the Phishing Protection feature is enabled. -
Improved tabbed browsing: By default, Firefox will open links in new tabs instead of new windows, and each tab will now have
a close tab
button. Power users who open more tabs than can fit in a single window
will see arrows on the left and right side of the tab strip that let
them scroll back and forth between their tabs. The History menu will
keep a list of recently closed tabs, and a shortcut lets users quickly
re-open an accidentally closed tab. -
Previewing and subscribing to Web feeds: Users can decide how to handle Web feeds (like
this one), either subscribing to them via a Web service or in a
standalone RSS reader, or adding them as Live Bookmarks. My Yahoo!, Bloglines
and Google Reader come pre-loaded as Web service options, but users can add any Web service that handles RSS feeds
