Firefox 2

Hot on the heels of IE7, Mozilla released a new version of Firefox today. Ars Technica wrote a review of one of the betas which is mostly still relevant, if you want to know about what’s new in this version. Mostly it’s just polish, with some performance fixes and a new phishing detector to protect you from sites pretending to be your bank. All the polish adds up to a nice browser, but there aren’t any major new features that will change how you surf the inter-tubes. Still, it’s free and it renders webpages better than Internet Explorer, so give it a download.
