Download Firefox 11 FinalEven though the final Firefox 11 build was supposed to be delayed due to the security flaw, which was discovered during the Pwn2Own content, it looks like Mozilla went ahead and fixed everything just in time.

However, it looks like the Firefox devs will have to start buying cakes of their own as Microsoft halted the tradition, thanks to the faster development cycles.

So what’s new in Firefox 11?

    “With Sync enabled, add-ons can now be synchronized across your computers.” Finally! I have been waiting for this! I have 17 add-ons installed, including themes, and as I have both a laptop and a desktop and sometimes dabble around with Linux, this is truly good news for me!

     Firefox has some new excited features.

    The security bug was actually already fixed!

    “The security bug reported by ZDI is one we had already identified and
    fixed through our internal processes. This eliminates the need for us to
    delay this week’s releases, and we will be shipping them later today.”

     Anything changed in SSL validation? I’m seeing a few failures where I didn’t before.   Maybe that this is improvements and the sites need to get their act together..
