Firefox 5.0 Final

Today Firefox 5.0 Final has been released and is available for download for free as usual. Not much difference is seen in this latest version of Firefox, but there are several additional features that might be a reason to immediately update your browser. Of course, Firefox 5.0 is better in performance when compared to Firefox 4.

Once installed you will find it difficult to detect any visible changes. Do-Not-Track, the privacy features introduced in Firefox 4 has been moved so it 'a bit easier to find (Tools> Options> Privacy, which really should be in the first place), but that's about it.

The most significant additions is the new single support for CSS Animations, a technology that allows developers to create simple web animations, even if you do not know JavaScript.
