Mozilla Firefox 3.5: First Patch On Its Way

Mozilla Firefox 3.5: First Patch On Its Way

By: Jamie Pert | July 3, 2009 | 3 Comments

Following the Tuesday release of Mozilla Firefox 3.5 it is being reported that a patch is on its way to stamp out several bugs. This patch is said to be released within the next few weeks. The release will be called Firefox 3.5.1 and is said to fix at least three bugs and also sort sort out some ‘topcrashes’.

Mozilla received over 6.5million downloads within the first 36 hours of the release, and on the whole it has been a success. There is a common crash with Firefox 3.5′s new JavaScript Engine TraceMonkey, this problem has been fixed and is just waiting for the rest of the patch to be finsihed before its released.

If you receive any crashes be sure to report them to help Mozilla smooth out common problems, if you do come across a problem Mozilla usually prompts you with Mozilla Crash Reporter.

    Had to remove and thanks to nightly backups I was able to restore back to 3.0. In less than 3 hours 3.5 had deleted all addons, plugins, themes, and all of my bookmarks, and over 100 Speed Dial links. It is removed and will not be installed until it is ready. They rushed it out and it has too many bus to use. I will stick with what works and that is the last version of Firefox.
