Firefox 2 (Bon Echo) is released.

According to Firefox Extension Guru, you can not go directly from Firefox 1.5.0.7 to Firefox 2 via auto-update.

So, Download Firefox 2 Now!

Of the two rivals, Firefox remains the better application. Since IE users will have to adjust to a new layout and interface anyway, this might be a good time to give Firefox a try, then watch IE 8 play catch-up again in five years.
