Posted by CmdrTaco on Thursday June 05, 2008 @08:37AM from the unleash-the-upgrades dept.

Barence noted that Firefox has announced release candidate 2 of their highly popular web browser. You can read the release notes while you download. And since my copy just finished downloading, I guess I'll go install it. I hope I don't have any

Taco wants us to complete his post. My suggestions:

I guess I'll go install it. I hope I don't have any weasels in my trousers.

I guess I'll go install it. I hope I don't have any eels in my hovercraft.

I guess I'll go install it. I hope I don't have any embarrassing mistakes visible to the entire world, or at least as much of the world as comes here when bored.

Just earlier today I was exhilarated to hear about changeset 15261:49cdeb4f8144 [mozilla.org].

Words cannot even begin to describe the anticipation building around the next changeset that will be made to Firefox. Hold on very tight everyone, the next one is going to change the world in ways you never imagined!

It's a new feature (or bug) on Firefox
It clicks through all send and confirmation links by itself before it crashes.

To clarify Mozilla's position on the matter:
1. There were no memory leaks in Firefox 2, and
2. These leaks have been fixed in Firefox 3.
Thank you for your understanding. :)
