Today, June 17th 2008 is the official Firefox Download Day. Though the official release of Firefox 3.0 is still couple of hours away but the official Mozilla FTP has already been updated with a copy of Firefox 3.0 and you can download it straight away. More alternate download links can be seen at the end of the post.
Firefox 3.0 is the new version of Mozilla Firefox Web Browser that has revolutionized the web since its creation and overthrown browsers like IE and Opera from the web browser industry.
In Firefox 3.0 you will find tons of new features and improvements most of which focus towards security and usability. Below is a list of the top new features of Firefox 3.0:
- Better anti-malware and spyware protection
- Super add-on manager
- Improved Download Manager with detailed stats
- New and improved Bookmarking feature
- Much cleaner and smooth layout
- Streamlined Remember Password
- Less memory-usage
and lots more!
The Firefox community still needs your help to make a World Record. Stay tuned as I will soon be updating this blog on how to install Firefox 3.0 Final on Ubuntu Linux.

I got confused
@Ali Baba: They took the Firefox 3.0 installer off the Mozilla FTP but you can still download it from Softpedia
@Hammad: Most addons work perfect with Firefox 3.0 but some need to uninstalled before upgrade.
@Arhun: Brother use the Softpedia download link for now. I am also uploading to make a rapidshare mirror.
The official Firefox 3.0 download will open in almost 3 hours!
