It's the end of the line for Firefox 1.5. Later today Mozilla will release the final security update and bug fix for the now deprecated browser. Although it isn't currently available, the final version, 1.5.0.12, should be on [this page][2] later today.
The last version of 1.5 will also reportedly include a mechanism that prompts users to upgrade to 2.0. Better late than never I guess.
Firefox 2.0 will also be updated this afternoon with over a hundred bug fixes (including 2 memory leaks). Version 2.0.0.4 will be [available from Mozilla][1] sometime later today.
So long Firefox 1.5, it was nice knowing you.
Also of note, [the fifth alpha for Firefox 3][3] should be available for testing this Friday and will likely include the new [Places][4] bookmark management tools.
