  We study the Anderson-like localization transition in the spectrum of the
Dirac operator of quenched QCD. Above the deconfining transition we determine
the temperature dependence of the mobility edge separating localized and
delocalized eigenmodes in the spectrum. We show that the temperature where the
mobility edge vanishes and localized modes disappear from the spectrum,
coincides with the critical temperature of the deconfining transition. We also
identify topological charge related close to zero modes in the Dirac spectrum
and show that they account for only a small fraction of localized modes, a
fraction that is rapidly falling as the temperature increases.
