Another Firefox vulnerability
Posted: Fri Mar 25, 2005 8:33 am
Another vulnerability has been found in the Firefox browser, and once again users are required to download and install the entire browser, rather than a simple update.
The download is 4.7 MB in size, so those of you on dial-up connections should schedule it when your computer will be free for a few minutes. I didn't uninstall version 1.0.1 before installing the new one, and it seemed to work just fine.
The URL to download v1.0.2 is:
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/
I haven't spent any time using the new version yet, so don't know if it'll do a better job of blocking pop-ups than was done by the previous version. Hope so.
