Firefox 41 now available

The usual lack of a coherent version announcement accompanied yesterday’s release of Firefox 41. A post on the Mozilla blog refers vaguely to the ‘latest Firefox’, and provides a brief overview of changes to Firefox accounts and synchronization in the new version.

The release notes for Firefox 41 provide more details on the changes, although nothing listed there is of much interest.

Firefox 41 does include at least nineteen security fixes, as outlined on the Firefox Security Advisories page.

Recommendation: update Firefox as soon as possible.

About jrivett

Jeff Rivett has worked with and written about computers since the early 1980s. His first computer was an Apple II+, built by his father and heavily customized. Jeff's writing appeared in Computist Magazine in the 1980s, and he created and sold a game utility (Ultimaker 2, reviewed in the December 1983 Washington Apple Pi Journal) to international markets during the same period. Proceeds from writing, software sales, and contract programming gigs paid his way through university, earning him a Bachelor of Science (Computer Science) degree at UWO. Jeff went on to work as a programmer, sysadmin, and manager in various industries. There's more on the About page, and on the Jeff Rivett Consulting site.
