Earlier this week, we made note of the most recent Firefox upgrade; the current version is 2.0.0.8 although I’ve already read on some sites that some regression errors slipped through the cracks. I’d expect a smallish update very soon as a result. Well, not everyone wants to run their browser on a physically local drive. Some like the security and portability of applications on a stick, i.e.: apps that you run off of a USB flash drive for example. This gives you peace of mind that you’re not leaving data on the host PC.
In the Firefox 2.0.0.8 post comments, Melvyn asked us when Portable Firefox would be upgraded to the current version, so for Melvyn and everyone else wondering, the answer is: right now! Actually, it was upgraded two days ago, but that saying that would be much less dramatic. ;) Hop over to the Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition site to top off your USB drive with Firefox 2.0.0.8.
