Still using Mozilla's Firefox 1.5?

Be aware that today marks the last security and stability update for the 1.5 version of the open-source browser. After this release, users will be urged to migrate to Firefox 2.

"On Wednesday, May 30, we expect to begin distributing Firefox 1.5.0.12 and Firefox 2.0.0.4 via automatic updates," wrote Basil Hashem, senior director of product management at Mozilla, in a blog. "We expect this is the final stability and security release for the version 1.5 product series. Firefox 1.5.0.12 includes an auto-update mechanism that offers users the ability to migrate to Firefox 2."

In my own case, other than the shameful way the FF creators trashed FF2.x's cookie handling, I like it much better than any of the previous versions. I have never had any issues with FF2.x on any PC. And so far, I'm probably up to 50 or 60 PCS...

When I tried it about a month ago, too many of my favorite extensions were not supported yet.
