The latest version of the Firefox 3.5x branch is currently being distributed to all official Mozilla mirror servers around the world. Some are already hosting the latest version Firefox 3.5.2 for all supported languages and operating systems while others are only showing the directory structure but no files yet. It is likely going to take at least a few hours, maybe even more than a day before all servers are populated with the latest version and the release can be officially announced on the Mozilla website. It usually takes between 24-48 hours before the automatic update checker in Firefox picks up on the new release and offers it for download as well.
Ghacks readers can – as always – download the US-English version of Firefox early from a free file host. The new version of Firefox is hosted at Mediafire. Downloads for Microsoft Windows, Apple Macintosh and Linux are provided as a courtesy to my readers.

- Firefox 3.5.2 for Apple Macintosh
- Firefox 3.5.2 for Linux
The beta release notes of Firefox 3.5.2 mention several security and stability issues that have been fixed in the new version. This makes it a recommend update for all Firefox 3.5x users. A issue with images with ICC profiles has been fixed as well which now render properly on all computer monitors. The full list of bug fixes and issues can be accessed at Bugzilla.
Please be advised that there might be last minute changes to a release which would then not be covered in this current version of Firefox. While it is usually safe to download and install these releases it is advised to stay away from them if you are a cautious user. Wait for the official release announcement then.

I guess it’s worth installing this 3.5.2 should it still be in beta stage, moreover considering that beta versions of Firefox are seldom widely distributed as such. “Beta” here is I believe more theoretical than stricto sensus.
Thanks Martin.
Thanks for – as always – for your quick support for our readers. This version feels faster, to me. Please keep up the good work. Please be so ferry kind to let us readers know if there are any changes.
So did they fix the 100% cpu usage problem yet?
Terminate process or restart is the only way to stop the problem.
I think it has to do with flash but it still happens to me even with flashblock blocking all flash. It is NOT a addon I can recreate the problem with all addons disabled.
I tell you what if this doesnt get fixed ASAP I am moving to Chrome and FF has lost a lifetime user. I am not the only one who will leave either.
@ b. moore- I’m totally with you on ditching ff. To answer your question…no they have not fixed the high cpu usage issue, which is why I’m using IE right now. I loved ff before version 3 came along. I wish ff would get it together!
Hi,
Thanks for this update. Its just what wanted to know.
It’s annoying when firefox gets slow. I get really mad. I will update it now & see….
I hope the features of the firefox update, as mentioned in this blog – http://www.levoltz.com/2009/07/31/the-best-features-of-firefox-3-5/ will really be true & effective. I am hoping for the best.
Thanks again

With each update, Firefox seems to become less and less stable. The latest version 3.5.2 has become so unstable, I find it unusable as it crashes constantly and I have been forced to go back to using Safari. Shame, Firefox used to be good!
