Έτοιμη η πρώτη beta του Firefox 4

Η αγορά των browsers έχει γίνει ιδιαίτερα ανταγωνιστική, καθώς οι χρήστες έχουν πλέον στη διάθεσή τους αρκετές αξιόλογες προτάσεις. Κάθε νέα έκδοση ενός browser φιλοδοξεί να προσφέρει το κάτι παραπάνω, έτσι ώστε να κερδίσει περισσότερους χρήστες και να διευρύνει το μερίδιο αγοράς. Η έκδοση 4 του Firefox αναμένεται να κυκλοφορήσει στο τέλος του 2010 και η πρώτη beta είναι γεγονός.

Ο νέος Firefox θα έχει πλήρως ανανεωμένο design, με τα tabs στην κορυφή κι ένα κουμπί Firefox που αντικαθιστά τη menu bar και μοιάζει αρκετά με το αντίστοιμο που υπάρχει στον Opera από την έκδοση 10.50. Θα περιλαμβάνει επίσης καλύτερη διαχείριση σε add-ons και υποστήριξη για το νέο video standard WebM. Οι υπόλοιπες αλλαγές που έχουν ανακοινώσει οι δημιουργοί του είναι οι εξής:

- Significant API improvements are available for JS-ctypes, a foreign function interface for extensions.
- The stop and reload buttons have been merged into a single button on Windows, Mac and Linux.
- The Bookmarks Toolbar has been replaced with a Bookmarks Button by default (you can switch it back if you'd like).
- Crash protection for Windows, Linux, and Mac when there is a crash in the Adobe Flash, Apple Quicktime or Microsoft Silverlight plugins.
- CSS Transitions are partially supported.
- Full WebGL support is included but disabled by default at this time.
- Core Animation rendering model for plugins on Mac OS X. Plugins which also support this rendering model can now draw faster and more efficiently.
- An experimental Direct2D rendering backend is available on Windows, turned off by default.
- Web developers can use Websockets for a low complexity, low latency, bidirectional communications API.
- Web developers can update the URL field without reloading the page using HTML History APIs.
- More responsive page rendering using lazy frame construction.
- Link history lookup is done asynchronously to provide better responsiveness during pageload.
- CSS :visited selectors have been changed to block websites from being able to check a user's browsing history.
- New HTML5 parser.
- Support for more HTML5 form controls

Copyright enforcement firm ACS:Law hit by embarrassing email leak

It's the weekend and Broadband Genie is enjoying a well-deserved break, but this story was too good to wait until Monday. ACS:Law, the infamous law firm which has been sending out dubious letters threatening to take people to court for file sharing, has had a massive database of its emails leaked onto the web. The ACS:Law web site was taken down by a denial of service (DDoS) attack earlier in the week, an event described by boss Andrew Crossley as "typical rubbish from pirates" . He's likely to have changed his tune now because someone discovered that before the site was restored a backup file containing the emails had been left in an open directory. Inevitably this was downloaded and widely distributed on file sharing networks. The collection includes the incoming and outgoing emails of Andrew Crossley and his employees, complete with attachments, and contains masses of information about how ACS:Law goes about its business and how much money it make...
