Default [Release] Firefox 3.0 RC2

For those of you following Mozilla and there Firefox updates, this is for you:up:
As of today, the latest Firefox has been released.
It is still not the actual release or anything, but it is quite close to that.
This is the Second RC! (Release Candidate)
As you all know, Firefox is a browser just like Internet Explorer or Safari. The new 3.0 system uses the new Gecko 1.9 Web rendering platform.

Here is a bit more info
Quote:
The award-winning Web browser is better than ever. Browse the Web with confidence. Firefox protects you from viruses, spyware and pop-ups.

Enjoy improvements to performance, ease of use and privacy. It's easy to import your favorites and settings and get started.

The latest version delivers easier navigation for everyone, including those who are visually or motor-impaired. Firefox is the first browser to support DHTML accessibility, which, when enabled by Web authors, allows rich Web applications to be read aloud. Users may navigate with keystrokes rather than mouse clicks, reducing the tabbing required to navigate documents such as spreadsheets. Firefox 1.5 (Windows version) is also the first browser to meet US federal government requirements that software be easily accessible to users with physical impairments.

Downloading as we speak. Details to come...

EDIT: Meh - adblock isn't compatible yet... I'll stick with Beta 5 in the meantime...
