    Firefox Critical Update

    If you're using Firefox and see a little red circle in the top right-hand corner with an arrow in it, click it - Firefox 1.0.2 has been released to fix some vulnerabilities.

    So ends my Public Service Announcement. :)

    Aye, vulnerabilities that they discovered themselves, rather than spotty little script kiddies finding them out (ie the IE way). :p :D

    apparently microsoft know most of their holes - but don't do owt about it till some life-less warcraft nerd finds it...

    i'm sure if the geeks turned their attentions to Firefox rather than sucking it's cock, they'd find equal amounts of holes in it - if not more.

    Microsoft didn't get where they are from writing crap code..... as much as they control our lives...

    The geeks probably just use firefox as there preferred browser so fuck up IE for a geeky giggle

    That's why I posted this up - was doing my civil duty. :D

    The exploit that mozilla found was in the code from Netscape, there's approx 2 million lines of legacy code in Firefox that not many people know what it does. Kinda like Windows. :lol:
