New Firefox Version Released

[B33R]

For those of you with auto updates turned off or a pre-1.5 version of Firefox, it's time to upgrade again!

1.5.0.6 was just released.


Get it here! - http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/


Changelog:
Fixed an issue with playing Windows Media content
.

ok... whats the difference between 1.5.0.4 and that bon echo? Because I can't see a visible difference! :o

 

[B33R]

1.5.0.4 is the stable release of Firefox, bon echo is the alpha release of Firefox 2.0
As the alpha releases are usually unstable, they only recommend you use them for testing and not everyday use.

Changelog added to post #1

I just updated!

If it's only an issue with playing Windows Media content, then I'll wait

How can I change my Firefox settings so it can update by itself when a newer version comes up?

 

[B33R]

Tools > Options > Advanced > Update. Then just check the appropriate boxes.

It'll usually update itself 24-48 hours after they release the new download.
