Firefox tightens security

The latest developer's build of Firefox adds even more security and adds an APIs to become more gamer-friendly.
Firefox 14 Aurora brings native full-screen support and the location bar can autocomplete URLs.

The security tweaks involve some minor interface adjustments. The Site Identity Manager is designed to be easier to use. Gray globe is the default icon for a site sent over an unencrypted connection or a site encrypted with HTTPS . When a page and its content come from encrypted servers, and the server uses a standard "CV" certificate, the gray globe changes to a gray lock icon. Two other security adjustments force all Google searches to default to HTTPS, and make plug-in loading optional. This gives users of the browser the option of making plug-ins like Adobe Flash and Apple QuickTime click-to-use.

Users on OS X 10.7 will get integration with the Mac full-screen button. Game developers now see Firefox work with the Pointer Lock API and the Wake Lock API. These prevent the mouse from leaving the game window, and prevent a screen saver from starting in a game,.
