Firefox 26 released, brings click to play plug-ins and reduced memory usage
2013-12-10 14:44:17| Extremetech
The latest version of Firefox, Firefox 26, is now officially available to download. This is one of the most significant releases in recent history, introducing built-in "click to play" functionality for all plug-ins (except for Flash). Firefox 26 also represents the dramatic culmination of Mozilla's MemShrink project, which has spent the last two and a half years trying to battle Firefox's reputation for being a memory hog. Firefox 26 has a very svelte memory footprint indeed.

Chrome will block NPAPI plug-ins over stability, security concerns

Plug-ins based on the NPAPI architecture will be blocked by default in Chrome starting early next year as Google moves toward completely removing support for them in the browser. "NPAPI's 90s-era architecture has become a leading cause of hangs, crashes, security incidents, and code complexity," Justin Schuh, a Google Chrome security engineer, said Monday in a blog post. "Because of this, Chrome will be phasing out NPAPI support over the coming year."
