Firefox 5 has landed and is now available to the public. The latest version of the popular web browser includes over 1,000 improvements, the most notable of which is a new Do Not Track privacy feature. This feature is found in the preferences and lets you easily opt-out of online tracking found on some websites.

Other new features include support for CSS animations, improved HTML 5 support and a new Add-ON SDK for web developers. The familiar Awesome bar sits at the top of the browser along with App tabs for common apps and Panorama tabs that can be organized into groups.

The Mac version of Firefox 5 is available here for download. Enjoy!

I always start Firefox once every new release on my Macbook Air - test it with a few heavier web sites and then, if it's not as fast as Chrome, stop using it. Once again, it's back to Chrome.

Didn't Firefox 4 just come out a couple months ago? Version numbers are going to start losing most of their meaning if they don't bother with point-releases anymore.
