Mozilla Firefox Blocks Adobe Flash Due To Security Issue

Mozilla Firefox version 42 includes new updates for Web security settings and Private Browsing released on Nov. 3.

The browser has now upgraded its Private Browsing feature with a Tracking Protection. The update is designed to avoid hackers for possible monitoring of the user's online searches and stop spam advertisement from third-party sites. Mozilla prioritizes their user's safety in web browsing by using the Tracking Protection; it will block the unwanted spams that will result to faster internet browsing.

Mozilla's Vice President, Nick Nguyen said that, "With the release of Tracking Protection in Firefox Private Browsing we are leading the industry by giving you control over the data that third parties receive from you online," according to Tech Times.

The Private Browsing option does not store any of the user's browsing history or cookies into the local server but there are instances that third-party sites can snatch the user's data. To resolve the issue Mozilla created the Tracking Protection to secure that not one single data would leak to any third-party site trackers during the session that is now up for the new version 42.

This can also be applied to Android, Mac, Linux and Windows operating systems, according to The Mozilla Blog.

The Mozilla Firefox version 42 update has a simple user interface with all privacy setting options can be found in the Control Center of the browser. The animation tool is also available for the Firefox Developer Edition for efficient monitoring of what they are doing, according to Tech Times.

Mozilla created the animation tool for the Developer Edition to "make creating animations less like writing a script and more like creating a movie," via the reads on The Mozilla Blog.

The browser has Developer and HTML5 tools along with slight modifications of the WebRTC and Login Manager. Mozilla browser users with audio content can spot the visual mark using the desktop version for the updated version.

Nguyen proudly stated that, "No other browser's Private Browsing mode protects you the way Firefox does-not Chrome, not Safari, not Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer," according to The Mozilla Blog.
