Firefox 2 RC2

That's right, you can find the RC2 of the next version of Firefox here. Most improvements that consumers notice first are the new UI features. Taking many hints from IE7, Firefox now puts close buttons on the tabs themselves rather than off to the right and and created a very similar phishing advisor/blocker/tool. Also, the themes and extensions windows have been combined into one big add-ons window. There are of course, many updates to the Gecko rendering engine, but I didn't really notice to many other differences.
