New In Firefox 3.5
Firefox 3.5 makes surfing the Web easier and more enjoyable with exciting new features and platform updates that allow Web developers to create the next generation of Web content. Native support for open video and audio, private browsing, and support for the newest Web technologies will enable richer, more interactive online experiences.
Performance. Firefox 3.5 includes the powerful new TraceMonkey JavaScript engine, which delivers unprecedented performance with today’s complex Web applications. Firefox 3.5 is more than two times faster than Firefox 3 and ten times faster than Firefox 2.
Open Video and Audio. Enjoy video and audio content from within your browser, without the need for plugins. Video is a vital part of the modern Web, whether it’s used to communicate, educate, or entertain. Firefox 3.5 delivers the first native integration of audio and video directly into the browser. Now everyone can easily watch open format Ogg Theora videos.
Web developers can use these technologies to design pages that interact with video content in new and exciting ways, offering richer interactive experiences beyond controlling playback and volume.
Privacy Controls. Firefox 3.5 includes features designed to protect your privacy online and provide greater control over your personal data.
While using the new Private Browsing mode in Firefox 3.5, nothing you encounter on the Web will be stored from that moment on during your browsing session. Unique to Firefox 3.5, the new Forget this Site feature can remove every trace of a site from your browser. If you want to remove all private data or activity from the past few hours, Clear Recent History, another Firefox-only feature, gives you full control over what stays and what goes.
Location Aware Browsing. Location Aware Browsing saves you time by allowing websites to ask you where you are located. If you choose to share your location with a website, it can use that information to find nearby points of interest and return additional, useful data like maps of your area. It’s all optional – Firefox doesn’t share your location without your permission.
New in This Release
In this release, Firefox has been updated to 3.5.7 (release notes).
Auto-Update Issue
If you allow Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition to auto-update, some non-personal files may remain on the local PC. This will be addressed in a later release.
PortableApps.com Installer / PortableApps.com Format
Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition is packaged in a PortableApps.com Installer so it will automatically detect an existing PortableApps.com installation when your drive is plugged in. And it's in PortableApps.com Format, so it automatically works with the PortableApps.com Suite including the Menu and Backup Utility.

Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition is available for immediate download from the Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition homepage. You can get the German release from the German homepage and the other localized releases from the Localization page. Get it today!

Great! also kind of an issue
There is an issue on linking from the Main page of the site to here.
There is an extra "_" in the link after "07" that needs to be taken out.
Thanks for the update! Works perfectly fine here!
Fixed - ish
John, I changed the path from news/2010-01-07-_firefox_portable_3.5.7 to news/2010-01-07_-_firefox_portable_3.5.7 and fixed it in the front page. However, upon saving, the minus-the-underscore version continued to be displayed and going back into edit it the extra underscore was gone. Clearly it just created the new alias as an alias rather than as the main path. So currently it's accessible as both and the front page links to the "correct" but non-default one.
I left it
That's why I'd left it since it's already gone out via twitter and RSS (which can't really be changed since others mirrored it). We don't fix broken URLs once they've gone out. There's no real reason too. Plus Drupal's URL aliasing can't handle updates at the moment.
Italian installer screwed up
Hello, it happened again: the italian installer is just 444k and removes the current installation without installing the new one; luckily it doesn't wipe the configuration.
Thanks,
Mario
Updating
The installer has been fixed and is being updated on the download mirrors. It should be up shortly (15 minutes unless SF is delayed).
Your data is intact and FFP will work again when you reinstall.
solved
I had reverted to 3.5.6 in the meanwhile, but now 3.5.7 is good too.
Thanks a lot!
