Mozilla Firefox 39 is a far reaching browser which understands its user’s requirement. It is a plus over other web browsers in the ability to pop up windows and tabbed browsing. From the early versions developers are considering it at its best for its user friendly and unique features. Firefox 39 is the answer to the irritating still loading messages on the browser. It is capable to lodge the user requirements on the chosen levels and points of need.

Firefox is configured in a way to automatically configure new versions. Though you avoid this to happen users will receive update every time when Mozilla releases new version.

In case if you have missed the update you can still check it manually by tapping on Alt key and then going to Help > About Firefox from the menu bar at the top. It will give you a window which will check for the newer version from where you can automatically download the new version.
