The browser wars are heating up once again and Firefox doesn’t plan on going anywhere in the face of increased competition. With its newly released 3.5, Firefox is better than ever, but is it still the best? That is open to debate. What’s new in 3.5? Nothing earth shattering, but some very nice touches that improve the overall experience.
ChannelWeb points out 5 reasons the browser remains a titan amongst knaves:
2. Privacy:Just as Explorer offers InPrivate Browsing, Mozilla Firefox 3.5 has Private Browsing. Once a Private Browsing session is activated, computer users can surf any site at all with no trace remaining when they are finished: no cookies, no temp files, no forms information and no search information.
Further, if a user isn’t in Private Browsing mode, but still wants to eliminate traces of where he or she has been, there’s the “Forget About This Site” feature. That erases the site from the History list, as well as all traces of the browsing session on your computer, including cookies and temp files, search history, forms and more.
