Download Firefox 5 Stable from Mozilla FTP Servers

As we all know, Mozilla recently released the stable version of Firefox 4 and that took more than one year to be developed. Well that scenario is about to change now because Mozilla has started a rapid development program similar to Google Chrome and are planning to release a new version of Firefox every three months. At this rate, Firefox may end up with version 7 this year.
Mozilla yesterday uploaded the final version of Firefox 5 to their FTP servers. However, there is no sign of this new release in the Firefox website. According to recent announcements, Mozilla will be officially releasing the final version of Firefox 5 on June 21, 2011. If you want to try the final version now, you can do so by downloading the installers from the Mozilla FTP servers
