Get Firefox, a free web browser backed by Mozilla, a non-profit dedicated to internet health and privacy. Available now on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS. Mozilla Firebird 0.7 - Release Notes. Mozilla Firebird is a speedy, full-featured browser that makes browsing more efficient than ever before. It is a redesign of the Mozilla browser component, similar to Galeon, K-Meleon and Camino™, but written using the XUL user interface language and designed to be cross-platform. Firefox is the spiritual successor of Netscape Navigator, as the Mozilla community was created by Netscape in 1998 before their acquisition by AOL. Firefox usage grew to a peak of 32.21% at the end of 2009, with Firefox 3.5 overtaking Internet Explorer 7, although not.
Mozilla Firebird 0.7 is a Technology Preview. While this software works well in most cases, generally well enough to be relied upon as your primary browser, we make no guarantees of its performance or stability in its pre-1.0 state and it should not be relied upon for mission-critical tasks. See the License Agreement for more information.

PLEASE NOTE: You should create a new profile for Mozilla Firebird 0.7.To create a new profile, start Mozilla Firebird by running MozillaFirebird.exe-p and click on the 'Create Profile' button.
You must also delete your old Mozilla Firebird directory rather than just overwriting the files there. Not doing so WILL result in problems and you should not file any bugs on Mozilla Firebird unless you've first done a clean install and tested on a new profile. As Mozilla Firebird stabilizes more this will not be necessary but until then these steps are absolutely necessary.

Known Issues
This list covers some of the known problems with Mozilla Firebird 0.7. Please read this before reporting any new bugs, and watch it regularly (we'll update it as new bugs are found in the release).
- Mozilla Firebird utilizes large chunks of Mozilla Application Suite code. Many of the problems you may experience in Mozilla Firebird are actually problems in this Mozilla core code. If you find a problem with page content or connectivity then it is probably a Mozilla problem and should be reported to the Browser product in Bugzilla, not to the Mozilla Firebird product.
- Menus and folders on the bookmark toolbar do not always collapse correctly for Mozilla Firebird users on Windows.
- 'Use this theme' checkbox in theme install doesn't function properly and you may have to switch themes by going to
Tools > Options > Themes. Also, some themes will not completely switch without a restart. - Disabling of form auto-completion is not working.
- Firebird on Mac OS X is new and still very rough around the edges. Expect platform inconsistencies.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What can I do to help?
We need all the exposure we can get. Make it your mission to convert 5 friends, family members or coworkers. If you're a student, get it distributed at your college. Submit a story to Slashdot and other news sites about the release. Make some noise on your blog. Mass distribution via the Internet is possible--look at Kazaa. Spread the word!
- I use another browser because...
If you're not using Mozilla Firebird, tell the development team why. We read the feedback at the Mozilla Firebird forums.
- Why haven't you responded to the mail I sent you?
Use the forums. The Firebird team reads them regularly. E-mails are likely to be ignored.
- Where can I get themes and add-ons (extensions)?
Extensions and Themes.
- Who is working on Mozilla Firebird?
The main developers include Dave Hyatt, Blake Ross, Pierre Chanial, noririty, Ben Goodger, Dean Tessman,Mike Kaply, Jan Varga and Brian Ryner.Asa Dotzler provides help doing releases, bug triage, the website, and other odds and ends. David Tenser helps with documentation, the website and releases. Arvid Axelsson maintains the default theme. Notes of appreciation, offers to help and most other inquiries should be directed to the forums.
- Where's the Mozilla Firebird source?
cvs.mozilla.org. Mozilla trunk + mozilla/browser + mozilla/toolkit.
- Is Mozilla Firebird just Mozilla with a couple UI tweaks?
The 40,000+ lines of code already added or changed from Mozilla beg to differ.
- What happened with the name Phoenix?
It had to change because of trademark issues. The new name is Mozilla Firebird.
- Where is the mail client?
Many of the current users of the full Mozilla Application Suite are also using it for mail and news. This isn't possible in Mozilla Firebird since it's a browser only. However, you don't have to give up Mozilla's mail client by switching to Mozilla Firebird. You can download builds of the new Mozilla Thunderbird mail application, the perfect complement to the Mozilla Firebird browser.
Firefox 78
The rapid release calendar says it all: unless there’s an alien invasion in the next few days, Firefox 7 will be out on September 27th. And I’m fairly sure Christian would defeat the invasion himself just to make sure we release on time :). But I digress…
We are doing pretty well on the compatibility front, but there are still many add-ons that are incompatible with 7, some of them very popular. If any of your add-ons are among this group, I encourage you to read the compatibilitydocumentation available and update your add-on as soon as possible.
Rapid Releases – Get on the Train!
I know many of you are feeling the pain of the rapid release cycle. This is why we introduced the automatic compatibility bumps, that are being run roughly a week after a new version is released. However, one thing that you may not know is that the compatibility bumps are run to keep add-ons up to date with the Aurora channel.
So, if you want your add-on to be automatically upgraded when possible, you need to submit a version compatible with the Firefox 8 builds (or test and upgrade your current version on AMO) as soon as possible. A new version doesn’t need to be approved by the editor team in order to qualify for these automatic checks. It just needs to be on the site. We will run the Firefox 9 compatibility tests in a couple of weeks, and then you’ll be emailed with information about whether your add-on passed them or not. If it passes, you won’t have anything more to do for another 6 weeks. Ideally, this should happen for most add-ons and most releases, which hasn’t been far from the truth so far.
For those of you who like waiting until the final version is available in order to test and upgrade their add-ons (which we don’t recommend), you can treat the current Firefox 7 beta 6 as the final build. Unless something urgent comes up, that is Firefox 7.
