Versie 36.0 is uitgekomen van Waterfox. Waterfox is een 64bit-versie van de webbrowser Firefox, iets dat Mozilla wel al lang in ontwikkeling heeft maar nog nooit een stabiele versie van heeft uitgebracht. Het project is in maart 2011 gestart door de toentertijd 16-jarige Alex Kontos. Waterfox is een van de snelste browsers beschikbaar en op de website staan verschillende benchmarks die dat onderbouwen. De browser is alleen verkrijgbaar voor Windows en OS X en door middel van het toevoegen van een taalbestand is het ook in het Nederlands te gebruiken. De release notes voor deze uitgave kunnen hieronder worden gevonden.

- Any users on Waterfox 35.0 and 35.0.1 will not be receiving the automatic update as it needs to be signed digitally and there are some issues signing current update files. This should be resolved in the coming week. You can update manually if you want to upgrade to 36.0.
