Safer and faster internet:
Avoid suspicious sites and internet frauds with simple and instant site identification. You will get a full browser screen size warning message when you you visit a web page attempting phishing or trying to inject malware into your PC. Web pages load faster than before.
-
The “Awesome(location) Bar”:
This awesome bar is so awesome that nothing in business compares to it. Suppose you visited a website some time ago and want to visit it again but dont/vaguely
remember its name, type in whatever you remember about the site’s name and Firefox will find it for you. Now thats innovation.
It also lets you bookmark by a single clicking the “star” at the end of the bar. If you click the “start” twice, you can save it in desired folder and add a tag it.
-
Tag:
You can tag a site with different keywords. Suppose you label 10 sites with keyword “games”. Now when you type games in the location bar, all the ten sites will
be shown. You can also add multiple labels to one site.
-
Improved Search:
Search the Web in record time with smart keywords. With a few clicks you can assign keywords to search engines, and then simply enter your key and search words in
the location bar. With this feature, typing “book home building” can search Amazon.com, and take you right to books about home building without ever pausing at the
homepage.
-
Better memory management:
The only issue that irks Firefox lovers is the amount of RAM it eats when you use much of its own USP, the add-ons. The new version promises to be lighter faster in
the same regard.

Full zoom:
Zoom into any picture on a web page you want seamlessly.
