Firefox 26 arrives with Click to Play for Java, new Home screen, etc.

[LazyLion]

Firefox 26 has been released over on Firefox.com and all existing users should be able to upgrade to it automatically. As always, the Android version is trickling out slowly on Google Play.

First and foremost, the Click to Play revamp was supposed to be for all versions of all plugins, except the latest release of Flash. Unfortunately, Mozilla has pushed back this change and decided to focus on just Java.

In short, the feature means Firefox now only loads Java plugins when users click to interact with them. Previously, Firefox would automatically load Java whenever a site requested it, unless Mozilla had blocked it for security reasons (the company already blocks old versions of Java, Silverlight, and Flash).

Now, when a site tries to use Java, the user can choose whether to enable the plugin on that site. Firefox will only load it when you take the action of clicking to make it play. Alternatively, you can also configure Click to Play so that it always runs plugins on a particular website......

Firmware update for Samsung Galaxy Tab 2...please help!

I own a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 with Android 4.0.4 (Icecream Sandwich). I want to upgrade to Android Kitt Katt or Jelly bean, but when I go to my "Update" option under "Settings" it keeps telling me that there is no update available. I have also tried Samsung Kies and it gives me the same answer. So why is it not possible for me to upgrade my Android version. I have a MTN simcard but my service provider is Alltech Autopage. I contacted both in this regard but they keep refering me back to the other and really dont seem to care at all about helping me.
