If you were planning to host a Firefox 3 launch party this week, keep that bubbly on ice a bit longer.
Mozilla on Wednesday released Firefox 3 Release Candidate 3. Windows and Linux users won't likely feel a thing; the new browser is considered stable on those platforms.

The previous test version, Firefox 3 Release Candidate 2, can also be downloaded for Windows, Portable, Mac, and Linux systems.
