Random thought: Quotes + lists = no-go.
Anyways, I just downloaded it. Whee. List of updates down there. v
Here's what's new in Firefox 1.5:
- Automated update to streamline product upgrades. Notification of an update is more prominent, and updates to Firefox may now be half a megabyte or smaller. Updating extensions has also improved.
- Faster browser navigation with improvements to back and forward button performance.
- Drag and drop reordering for browser tabs.
- Improvements to popup blocking.
- Clear Private Data feature provides an easy way to quickly remove personal data through a menu item or keyboard shortcut.
- Answers.com is added to the search engine list.
- Improvements to product usability including descriptive error pages, redesigned options menu, RSS discovery, and "Safe Mode" experience.
- Better accessibility including support for DHTML accessibility and assistive technologies such as the Window-Eyes 5.5 beta screen reader for Microsoft Windows. Screen readers read aloud all available information in applications and documents or show the information on a Braille display, enabling blind and visually impaired users to use equivalent software functionality as their sighted peers.
- Report a broken Web site wizard to report Web sites that are not working in Firefox.
- Better support for Mac OS X (10.2 and greater) including profile migration from Safari and Mac Internet Explorer.
- New support for Web Standards including SVG, CSS 2 and CSS 3, and JavaScript 1.6.
- Many security enhancements.

er.. Why do I still have Firefox 1.0.6
Should I even upgrade though? has FF even released any new/cool features in the newer versions?
I thought 1.5 as still in beta test? Maybe I'm just behind...
It was just released today. The beta testing for it is now over and the official version is out
Kage, DUH!
POST STEALER!!!
Lots of fun improvements. Better standards support, reordering of tabs.

Hehe, I saw your post at SB and there wasn't one here yet so I decided to go ahead and make one
Nice, everything looks revamped and runs faster. There are less glitches than the last version with Windows 98. My theme didn't support v1.5, but the author created another version. With some editing, it looks just as good, if not better, than the original.
ok... It finally dl.. The first 2 times, it didn't work for some reason.. O_o
anyway.. kinda slow right now since nothing is cached..
I'll download when GameFOX becomes compatible with it >_>;
