The latest build of Firefox 3.5 has been released as of Monday, which Mozilla claims is the fastest version available to date. The first release candidate was only released to roughly 800,000 beta testers, but this new build is being hosted by Mozilla to all users. Included with the release is the built-in ability for video and audio playback, location-based browsing, speed adjustments that allow JavaScript to run up to three times faster than Firefox 3, and page loading times up to twice as fast as the older version of the browser. Build RC2 also provides over 6,000 different add-ons, graphics support for CSS and SVG, theme changes with one click, web worker threads for multitasking, and downloadable fonts. Mozilla has built this new version on the feedback that it received from the beta testers that got to experiment with the first release candidate, so various security holes should also be fixed, along with any speed problems that previous versions may have experienced .
