Firefox Support Changes Coming

Posted on March 26, 2012 by The Guru

A warning to Firefox 3.6.x users the last release going END OF LIFE on April 24 when the 3.6.x branch will finally be retired. This comes over a year after Firefox 4 was released last spring and is twice as long as Mozilla normally continues to provide support of older versions after a major release. Further starting with Firefox 13 on June 5, 2012, minimum requirement for Windows will change from Windows 2000 to Windows XP SP2. For organizations or individuals who are not able to update to the newer versions of Firefox due to older hardware and/or operating systems, there is the Firefox Extended Support Release 10.0.x builds. These will continue to be supported and updated through the rest of 2012.

While support for Firefox 3.6.x will be ending, the application will still be useable after April 24th. However, there will no longer be security or stability updates released.

Note: There will not be a FINAL Firefox 3.6.x release on April 24th.

The last few releases have been quite stable with minimal memory hogging and other previous problems.

I'm using Firefox Beta 12.0b2 right now (having survived the 10 and 11 betas with no damage)..
