Three days after the release of FireFox 3.0.2 a new update has been launched. FireFox 3.0.3 is all set to be used. Somehow, in previous release users couldn’t retrieve saved passwords or save new passwords. Although I was also using the same release but I didn’t face any problems.

I am sure some out there might have faced this problem of not able to recover saved passwords and hence for them FireFox 3.0.3 becomes a must download. Mostly, your FireFox will update itself on its own but if it dosen’t then I guess you should do it manually so that your passwords are remembered.

Features of 3.0.3 which are common with 3.0.2 are:

• Fixed several theme issues that affected right-to-left locales.
• Fixed several stability issues.
• Fixed a number of minor issues with the layout of certain web pages.
• Official releases for Sinhala and Slovene are now available.
• Beta releases for Bengali, Galician, Hindi, Icelandic, Kannada, Marathi, Telugu, and Thai are available for testing.
• Add new Extended Validation (EV) roots to Firefox 3.0.2.
• Fixed several hangs and crashes that occurred when using screen readers.

FireFox has released a new update which fixes five security issues. Hence, you must update your FireFox if it wasn’t updated automatically when you opened it today.

There are many other new features in this realase like:

• Fixed several theme issues that affected right-to-left locales.
• Fixed several stability issues.
• Fixed a number of minor issues with the layout of certain web pages.
• Official releases for Sinhala and Slovene are now available.

While Microsoft has muted all details associated with Internet Explorer 8.0 and will deliver a preview of the future of its browser at the end of April and the beginning of May 2007, Mozilla is getting ready to release the first public beta of Firefox 3.0. Microsoft is at the present time only dogfooding Internet Explorer 8.0, and that is a pre-alpha version. Meanwhile, Mozilla has already reached alpha 2 level with Firefox 3.0, codenamed Gran Paradiso.

At the 2007 International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, a Microsoft representative forecasted that it could take as much as two years before the final version of IE8 will be released to users.

Mozilla however is not waiting around for Microsoft. In this context, Firefox 3.0 is scheduled for its first public beta this spring. Additionally, Brendan Eich, chief technical officer for Mozilla, announced that the final version of Firefox 3.0 is planned for late Autumn, 2007.

So where do you find yourself? Have you started using IE7 and FireFox 2.0? Not yet? Friends the world is running fast, very fast. Start using the latest instead of the legacy softwares. You will surely love the new ones. Get set go . . .
