Firebird, and Thunder bird updates

Firebird had just had a (another) name change, now to Firefox. ALong with that it has also gone to version 0.8 aswell.

Some of the new features include:
  • A powerful new download manager that makes tracking multiple downloads easier
  • Numerous improvements to bookmarks handling, making it easier than ever to keep track of your favorite sites
  • Improved handling of extensions - small, easy to download applications that can be installed with a few simple mouse clicks and extend the browsers functionality.Community members have created more than 200 such extensions, including add-ons that remove ad banners, add spell-checker functionality, and add the ability to search Amazon.com, eBay or other popular sites from the Firefox toolbar;
  • An easy to use installer for Microsoft Windows users
  • A new default theme for Mac OS X users that integrates seamlessly with the OS X desktop environment.


Thunderbird misses an name change but now goes to updates to 0.5.
