Confirmed, not available yet.
I imaging this will probably be to rectify the FF 3.6.14 & JAVA problem that Alan Baxter reported in another topic (http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=72843.0). Though no link to any changelog found.

Please don’t hotlink to the ftp site executables. It’s not mirrored and Mozilla would appreciate it if links were made to the Firefox download page and not an unmirrored repository.
http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/
If you must link to a Mozilla repository, please link to http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.6.15/
It’s mirrored, supports all languages and platforms, and isn’t a hotlink to an exe.
That said, I’m going to wait for Mozilla to provide this one though the download page or update channel. It may not actually be ready yet:
Do Not Tell Me about that. I just posted link from MajorGeeks.com so go tell them about this issue.
If I give some Mirror will you stop boring me?
Mirror 1: http://www.filehippo.com/download_firefox/ - Other Language
Mirror 2: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download2248.html?2011-03-04
Nice Off-topic, next time instead of being Mozilla Hero and posting off-topic, follow your personal idea and wait for what you want…

+1 I told him already and such posts linking directly to executables should be deleted without delay. The guy has nothing better to answer but “don’t bore me” or “don’t tell me what I have to do” etc… he’d be banned for that on many other sites, better moderated than this one.
The guy doesn’t get that user x or y might just click on his link without checking where it goes. What that guy does is totally unacceptable, and was reported.
@ the guy doing that, whatever your answer is :

Just, checked the built-in updater and 3.6.15 is now available.

If these where malicious links to infected files, I'd agree with you.
Since they aren't I think it's nice not to have to go by way of china to get the actual file that I'm looking for.
Sorry Logos but I don't see anything wrong with Omid's post. :)

…you missed the point. Allowing such practices is an open door for anyone to register here and link to malware silently. Same goes btw for those hiding URLs behind words. in forum posts.
You are yourself worried about Avast launching a survey link in a browser after an uninstall, but linking directly to a program executable download doesn’t matter?
I don’t want don’t start a discussion in here but,
my worry has to do with going on the internet without protection,
which isn’t the case here.

Logos: If I remember correctly, you were mainly responsible for Damien leaving this site.
Keep this bollocks up, and you will force Omid away, too.
@Omid: You are doing a sterling job dude. Keep up the good work!

Couldn’t agree more.
Omid has NEVER posted a malicious link.

I’m sorry, Omid. I did not desire to upset you. I intended to politely request that you not post links to an unmirrored Mozilla repository and provided better links that you and other users could use.
Hey, it’s a dirty job, but somebody’s got to do it.
Both David and I posted our concerns that the release wasn’t ready yet and why. MajorGeeks was hosting a copy of Firefox before Mozilla was ready to have it released. In addition to that, the Download@Author’s Site link MajorGeeks provided redirected to an unmirrored executable in the Mozilla ftp repository instead of the Mozilla download page or the mirrored repository. MajorGeeks has a history of announcing and hosting Firefox releases before Mozilla thinks they’re completely ready, and has in the past – at least once – announced and hosted builds that were different from the ones that Mozilla eventually released to the public. Not a happy scenario. That’s why we usually recommend people wait until Mozilla is ready before updating. If I recall correctly, I’ve seen that suggestion made by other users in this topic before now.
Please, stop now. This thread is for updates ONLY.
P.S. I’m not bashing anybody in particular. Just trying to get back on topic. We went off topic.

@Tech.
Omid’s public, personally insulting outburst at me required a public, conciliatory, and informative explanation regarding appropriate updates from me in the same topic, without insulting him back. I’m now satisfied that the subject is closed.
