After releasing 7 beta builds of Firefox 5, Mozilla has now released the final build of Firefox 5.0 (available for download via FTP server), and the official release of the browser is expected on June 21.
Firefox 5 Final can be downloaded for Windows, Mac, and Linux in various languages. Try out this latest build if you can’t hold yourself!
