firefox lovers rejoice 3.0 beta is here

Reason?
firefox 3.0 beta 2 is out of the box for testing.While i was using 2.0.0.6 i thought there will never be any more development coz its really impossible to improve onto something thats already perfect. But as usual firefox 3.0 offers so many features that i i have decided to expect more from next releases instead of thinking present one as best.

Here i have listed few of its features:

• The coolest feature for me is "One-click site info".If you just click the favicon in the location bar you will be able to see who owns the site. Identity verification is prominently displayed and easier to understand.
• No matter how unbelievable it seems this version is much faster than previous one i had been using.
• It has an inbuilt list of site that are previously known for spreading malware/spyware.
  
• Web Forgery Protection: the content of pages suspected as web forgeries is no longer shown.
• Automatically installs and checks for newer versions of plug-ins.It also disables those which are less secure.
• Firefox 3.0 also informs antivirus when downloading any executable.(WOW!)
• You will no longer need a devoted download manager(though i recommend trying DDL). 3.0 is capable of resuming downloads.
• text selection: this is another excellent feature if you want to select only few words of line then you can double click at the starting word and just drag, your selection will be word by word. To select whole paragraph use tripple cilcking.
• The "smart bookmarks" at left corner makes it easy to see most visited and recently bookmarked pages.

Enough there are thousands and i dont really want to go on and on for hours.

Now towards the other side of the coin.

With all the improvements ,being a beta version it carries some characteristic "beta version" flaws:

1. From what i have seen it doesnt seem to sort the sites alphabetically.No matter what you enter in location bar it shows the most recently visited site first.(In my case even if i entered "r" for rediff it shows orkut first.)
2. According to "mozilla.org" IDM wont work with this version.
3. malware/phishing list is yet to be completed.

There are few more as those fall in "developer's issues" i listed here.

But keep in mind only one thing that the new era of browsing is here and there will no stopping to firefox in future.
