Does typical anti-virus (avast! v5.0.462), anti-malware (IO Security 360 v1.41), and/or firewall (ZoneAlarm v9.1.007.002) freeware stop this particular danger? I use those. Regarding this Secunia Advisory SA38608 episode, I have seen no instruction or guidance about: Version 3.5.8 does not run well on my system… at all! It fails to load many, many sites at moments when two alternate browsers have no trouble whatsoever (so it can’t be an ISP snag). In this case, though, it seems to amateur old me that patching the vulnerability is quite urgent yet I have seen mention here and there that prior versions such as 3.5.8 are not vulnerable. So I pretty much always wait a while before putting in a new version. I do understand it always takes a while for the independent developers to catch up. Not OK for me they are why I love Firefox instead of the G-brand or any other contender.

If I update to 3.6.2 or to 3.6, a dozen-plus of my add-ons become incompatible. That said, with this particular incident I have some problems. I’m also impressed with the quick attention to this kind of thing that always occurs with the Firefox people. Thanks Firefox team…I’m just a bit disappointed that it took the German announcement to prompt this – I always thought FF was more proactive, but you’ve done the right thing now.

What I see is the fix done on 14th but the patch released on 22nd. IMO it’s normally better to be grateful than snippy – especially to a bunch of people who give us a consistently great platform. Wow, that’s impressive – respect and thanks to all at can you name one outfit that regularly out-paces Mozilla in terms of reacting/solving issues? Thanks Mozilla for taking the time to reschedule your regular release dates and realize the important of zero day vulnerabilities. Was it inspired by Germany recommending a switch away from Firefox earlier on the same day or was that a coincidence? I can’t thank our build, QA, web development and release management team enough for the hard work done in the past few days to accelerate the Firefox 3.6.2 release.
