Firefox Update Kills Bugs, Adds Mac Support
Juha-Matti Laurio writes "Several vulnerabilities are fixed in version Firefox 1.5.0.2, which was released on Thursday. In addition to security patches Firefox now includes some stability enhancements and, as expected, includes native support for Apple Computer's Macs with Intel processors. Secunia has a detailed advisory about vulnerabilities fixed with this release."
This update called in a gang of niggers to rape my wife. Worse yet, it still leaks memory like /. does nerds.
Can people stop saying this BS, it's like all the FF fanboys shoved their collective heads into sand and are yelling "la la la, I can't hear you firefox is perfect." Here's a hint, ignoring problems doesn't make them go away, it simply makes other people switch browsers.
Yes, FF has memory leak problems, it doesn't release memory properly as everyone affected has noticed by now. Otherwise it wouldn't be using 400mb with one window open and no previous pages in that window. It also wouldn't go down to 50mb when I save the session and then restart the browser+reload the session. Well unless keeping track of where my windows are positioned required 300mb of ram, because that is about the only thing I notice losing when I do this
As someone else said, the biggest piece of evidence is simple. Other browsers which have the same feature seem to mysteriously now be horrible memory hogs (after previous windows are closed)..Maybe the FF devs simply can't code.
Uhh, every Cocoa app supports built-in spellchecking using the system spell-checker. Don't believe me? Get a real browser.
Those are features!
