A new version of the popular web browser Firefox has just been released. Firefox 3.6.7 fixes several stability and security issues in the web browser, making it a recommended update for every user of the Firefox 3.6 branch.
The new version of the web browser is currently distributed to worldwide mirror servers, and will be announced officially once the distribution completes.
As of now, it is only available directly on the Mozilla ftp site. The release notes are still mentioning Firefox 3.6.7 Beta and not the final release, it is expected that they are updated to reflect the final release.
Bugzilla lists a total of 76 bugs that have been fixed in the new version of the web browser, among them ten critical issues, and seven major issues.

Official downloads will be made available on the release notes page later on. Users who do not want to wait this long can check the ftp server to find the release for their operating system and language.
