Firefox RC3 fixes Mac bug

(pcpro) -- Mozilla has pushed out a third release candidate for Firefox 3, fixing a bug that could cause crashes and lock-ups in OS X.

The problem was caused by a change that Apple recently made to a browser plugin that Firefox accesses from time to time. Mozilla decided to workaround the problem, though it stresses that Firefox was not itself responsible.

The RC3 release is available from mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-rc.html.

Mozilla expects to release the finished Firefox 3 on 17 June.
