Hello, Firefox 8 released. It is accessible with JAWS & webvisum. Improvements: 1. Managing Add-Ons
Released into the beta channel at the end of September, Firefox 8 is perhaps most distinctive for the fact that add-ons installed by third-party programs are now disabled by default. This is a key security improvement, since previous versions allowed such installations without user consent, paving the way for malicious attacks. There's also now a one-time add-on selection dialog to help users manage previously installed add-ons. 2. Twitter in the Search Bar Another interesting update in Firefox 8 is the addition of Twitter to the search engines listed in the search bar, promising to make searching for posts on Twitter a lot easier. 3. Speedy Improvements A number of tweaks in Firefox 8 promise to make it considerably faster than its predecessors. Users can now choose to load tabs on demand, for instance, making start-up time much quicker when windows are restored. Performance and memory handling have also been improved when using audio and video elements, Mozilla says. 4. Bolstered Support Support for HTML5 context menus and Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) support for cross-domain textures in WebGL are among the extra muscle added to Firefox 8, as are improved WebSocket support and improved CSS hyphen support for many languages, according to the release notes for the beta version.
