The popular browser Mozilla Firefox is developed for Windows operating systems, Mac operating systems and Linux and is available in over 70 languages making it among the most open-source program.

So as to fix the issues with the older version (3.5), the browser's latest release puts the focus on rapid execution of Web pages much like its rival, Opera currently offers. The new version additionally continues to advance overall performance, stability, and security in comparison to older versions, according to the Mozilla Foundation. The browser also provides users the choice of "private browsing" that is already seen in other browsers for example Safari.

An additional feature designed to improve and facilitate the burden of web developers; there are now several functions that permit developers to create more engaging websites. But it's the architecture and especially the performance of the engine that makes the difference. In reality it is on this aspect that Mozilla is trying to keep its leadership in the market.

Among the latest development we have the automatic detection of extensions to make sure that they are suitable for newer versions of the browser before updating, new Personas, full screen videos, a greater variety of fonts, along with added support for new CSS features. Concerning personas, which had made the success of the browser, the selection has been integrated into the browser, so you will no longer need to download the extension and therefore you don't need to restart Firefox to see changes.

Firefox is a Browser increasingly more popular due to its many features and plug-ins which are very practical for its users and that can work faster than other browsers like Internet Explorer 8 that are less intuitive.

However during recent times there's been more aggressive competition from the rivals. Internet Explorer isn't far behind nowadays and has made some serious catching up. Google Chrome is undoubtedly a significant threat considering the fact that it is also open-source software and is backed up by the financial strength of Google. To date Firefox has been able to survive and we are expecting that it will keep doing so and it is the other browsers that will have to be wary of losing share of the market.

So the next times that you'll need to set up a new browser on your laptop computer or desktop computer, don't forget about Mozilla Firefox and you will not regret it.
