The Mozilla Firefox developers have released a third beta version of Firefox 3.6 just a week after releasing the last beta version of the web browser. This beta version was not listed in the Firefox roadmap and could come as a surprise to many Firefox users who expected that a first release candidate would be the next public release. The bug list over at Bugzilla lists 83 fixes in this version of Firefox of which two have been classified as blockers and 13 as critical. The release notes on the other hand list two new features in Firefox 3.6 beta 3 which sound interesting:
# (NEW) Changes to how we allow third party software to integrate with Firefox in order to prevent crashes.
# (NEW) The ability to run scripts asynchronously to speed up page load times.
Firefox users who are interested in upgrading to this latest beta version should read the known compatibility issues which are listed in the release notes to ensure that Firefox 3.6 Beta 3 will run properly on their system. Updates are available for all supported operating systems and languages. The easiest way to upgrade is to check for a new version from within Firefox by going to the Help > Check for Updates menu. Another option is to visit the official beta page to download the version of the web browser from there.
As usual this new beta version breaks a few add-ons which need to be forced to be compatible with the Nightly Tester Tools.

I have just uninstalled the Firefox beta & also v3.55. They were
allowing a crew of tracking cookies, & refused to delete them. (V 2.2
behaves OK in this regard, but I am likely heading to Iron as my
default browser.) I am wondering if Mozilla might be in bed w/ some
of
these commercial interests.
Ultimate irony perhaps?
