- Official Mozilla 1.7 builds for Windows, Linux, and Mac all contain the Talkback crash reporting utility. Help us make 1.7 the most stable release yet; please submit your crash reports.
- A new option to prevent sites from using JavaScript to block the browser's context menu.
- A new set of icons for files that are associated with Mozilla on Windows.
- Password Manager has a "show passwords" mode which will display saved passwords. You will need to enter your master password if you are using one.
- The "Set As Wallpaper" feature now has a confirmation dialog.
- Linux GTK2 builds have improved support for OS themes.
- Cookie dialogs have been reworked to make them more usable.
- Date handling, especially on OS X, has been improved.
- It is now possible to fine-tune Mozilla's pop-up blocking using two preferences (dom.popup_maximum and dom.popup_allowed_events) but there's no UI for that yet. Even without a UI, users should notice a greater variety of pop-ups blocked (primarily mouseover pop-ups) and a limit of 20 or so open at one time - regardless of whether pop-up blocking is active. This will provide some protection from sites that open hundreds of windows in a loop.
- Downloaded files are now moved to the target directory as soon as the user selects the desired location. This was the frequently reported bug 55690.
- There is now user interface to activate Smooth Scrolling (Preferences -> Appearance).
- Mozilla now supports basic FTP upload.
