Michael Kaply has released Mozilla's Firefox 2.0.0.14 (Official) for OS/2.  This is a security release to address bug MFSA 2008-20  (Crash in JavaScript garbage collector) which was rated critical.

You can download it here:

Hey gang, I just installed FF 2.0.0.14, and one other thing I can tell you about it (which is probably related) is that numerous JavaScript heavy things (like gMail) also seem to work considerably faster (this is on a pretty slow system with limited memory, so your results may vary).

Switching between tabs seems somewhat faster as well (which since I virtually always have gMail open, may be related to the same speed-up in JavaScript - or not).

Just an FYI!

Michael (Kaply), thanks for keeping FF up to date for us!!!!

Robert

Excellent Robert! I guess these are some of the core changes trickling down into the builds from the 3 improvements right? I cant wait for 3 then!

I also eagerly await the Peter Weilbacher 2.0.0.14 suite of Mozilla apps so that I may upgrade my stuff :D
