Firefox web browser: Less stress with updates
Mozilla developer Brian R. Bondy, announced in his blog that Firefox will continue to update Windows automatically. The development team is currently working on a Windows service that will keep the open source browser without user intervention to date (silent update).
The service should be optional - it is disabled, Firefox is updated as usual with an update dialog. Google's Chrome browser brings itself has always been self-employed on the date because the service runs with system privileges, the user must update the process no longer grant any time by UAC (User Account Control, UA) Admin rights.
Bondy, announced that the update service will also take care of later, possibly updating the other Mozilla applications. Also, the update of parallel installations of different development sectors will dominate the updater. The introduction of the silent update is planned for Firefox version 10, which appears likely in early 2012.
In addition, Firefox will warn future rare to restart the browser, which is necessary to install the updates. The user is currently 12 hours after the automatic download of updates to the Firefox restart requested, he will this future be called upon only after 24 hours. On the basis of submitted error report, the developers found that there are slightly over 15 percent of all users of Firefox can be longer than 12 hours and would benefit from this.
Even the invitation to appear only when there is a security update. So that the user is prompted not so far as the browser to start updating the program, future updates should be installed when you quit the browser. Also annoying gently, the decision to be the developer, addons treat principle in the future as compatible when they are not on a blacklist.
This step is especially due to the recently revised version of politics sorely needed, every six weeks is a new major release of the browser. So far, Firefox is governed by a value set by the developer of the extension. Firefox is newer than the version number in the expansion is deposited, the extension disabled by the browser and can be very inconvenient to turn it back on.
