About Firefox
Firefox: Type about:plugins in the Location Bar (address bar) and press the Enter key. SeaMonkey: Open the Help menu and choose 'About Plug-ins'. Note: In Mozilla 20 and below (e.g., Firefox 20), plugins that are disabled in the Add-ons Manager do not appear in the about:plugins list. That bottom middle image with the fox curled around the purple globe is our current Firefox browser logo. The bottom right image of the fiery marble is our parent brand logo, which represents the family of Firefox products we make outside of just the Firefox browser, like Firefox Monitor.It’s not an icon you’re going to see on a dock, phone’s home screen or desktop, though. Firefox Mac OS X 10.9, 10.10 and 10.11 users move to Extended Support Release Firefox 78 is the last supported version for Mac OS X 10.9, 10.10 and 10.11. Users will be moved to Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR). The 'beast reborn' refers to Firefox, which gained supporters who self-organized through Spread Firefox, and undertook publicity for the browser, taking out an advertisement in The New York Times and making a crop circle shaped like the Firefox logo. The 'cunning of foxes' is a direct reference to Firefox's name. Firefox was chosen because it was distinctive, and no one else was using it (although it turned out a European company did own the trademark to the word Firefox, and a deal was reached). When Firefox was still in the beta stage (when a program hasn't been publicly released, but people can download and use it to help find and fix problems), it.
How people use the internet has evolved since Firefox was born, and we need to keep up. People deserve an independent agent that gives them control over their identity online and keeps them safe, and we can’t do that with just a browser alone anymore. Over the next three years, we will expand the reach of Firefox.
Firefox will be a browser, but it will also be a set of services and mobile apps. We will continue to improve our core experience, but we will introduce new ideas that would not happen without us. Too many items download mac. People will choose Firefox because it imbues them with super powers that they can’t get anywhere else. It will always work better than they expect. It will make being online better. We are at our best when the world follows our lead.
We are bad at following others. We will create the future and accelerate it. We are going to matter.

Firefox Desktop and Android
In Firefox Desktop, the first half of the year will bring multi-process to the general release for the very first time. Test Pilot will be relaunched as a way for release channel users to opt into experimental features for rapid iteration and feedback. One of these features will be the Activity Stream (placeholder name) which is a searchable, more powerful view of user history.
In Firefox for Android, the first half of the year will focus on providing users with a quality browsing experience that incorporates interactions more in line with their expectations, while bringing relevant Web content to the user in a proactive and digestible way. This includes a revamp of our Top Sites, Bookmarks and other home panels, notifying users when a blog has been updated with new content, or reminding users of recently-saved bookmarks.
