Firefox 3.02 Final

Mozilla started distributing the final version of Firefox 3.02 to various major and minor mirror sites. This is the usual process before they release the notification on the homepage about the new version. The Check for Updates feature will show the new version usually 0-24 hours later.
Firefox users who cannot wait can head straight to the main list of Firefox mirror sites and pick a mirror next to their location to download the latest official version of Firefox.
Download Squad reported that it is a beta release that got released today but this is obviously not true since Firefox 3.02 is available in the Firefox release directory of the Mozilla ftp site which indicates that this is the final version and not a beta release.
Users who cannot find the download need to follow the path firefox/releases/3.0.2/ on the ftp mirrors to find the release that they can download. The download is available for all supported operating systems and in all languages.

The release notes are still mentioning changes of the beta version of Firefox 3.02 but will surely be updated soon with the release information which should not be that different. Some interesting changes are several security and stability fixes, minor layout issues and hangs & crashes when using screen readers.
Don't be afraid when the What's new page is still referring to Firefox 3.02 beta. This page has not been updated as well.
 
Yep, the update has been rolled out to most of the mirrors already and if you check the manual update (Help->Check for Updates) you'll find it available for download.
 
i still don't like the fact FireFox is set to automatically update.
would be nice if this was a install feature to decide on.
each computer...has to be configured.....!!!
GPO...so much easier...


anyway,
my spell check has disapeared since the 3.0.2 update???
wtf?
 
Make sure the dictionary you are/were using has been updated, or use Nightly Tester Tools to force it.
