Comodo Icedragon 42.0.0.25 -

Overview

The Bad

• Update Lag: While version 42.0.0.25 synchronized with Firefox 42, Comodo was notoriously slow to push subsequent updates. By the time Firefox released version 45 (with critical security fixes for Spectre/Meltdown precursors), IceDragon often lagged months behind.
• Plugin Limitations: Because IceDragon used a different GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) than Firefox, some Firefox extensions failed to recognize the browser. Users often had to manually install extensions via about:debugging or edit extension manifests.
• No Sandboxing (Relative to Chrome): Being a Firefox fork, IceDragon inherited Firefox’s weaker (at the time) process sandboxing. Unlike Comodo Dragon (Chromium), IceDragon could not isolate tabs into separate OS processes effectively.
