Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.2

[Reverend]

Firefox is a free, open-source and cross-platform web browser for Windows, Linux, MacOS X and other operating systems. It is small, fast and easy to use, and offers many advantages over other web browsers, such as the tabbed browsing and the ability to block pop-up windows.

Neato! Only one of my extensions didn't work - but it was a minor one.
:D

And here's the change log:
* Universal Binary support for Mac OS X which provides native support for Macintosh with Intel Core processors. Firefox supports the enhancements to performance introduced by the new MacIntel chipsets.
* Improvements to product stability.
* Several security fixes.

And the security fixes are:

MFSA 2006-29 Spoofing with translucent windows
MFSA 2006-28 Security check of js_ValueToFunctionObject() can be circumvented
MFSA 2006-25 Privilege escalation through Print Preview
MFSA 2006-24 Privilege escalation using crypto.generateCRMFRequest
MFSA 2006-23 File stealing by changing input type
MFSA 2006-22 CSS Letter-Spacing Heap Overflow Vulnerability
MFSA 2006-20 Crashes with evidence of memory corruption (rv:1.8.0.2)

Upgraded! Works like a charm and all my extensions are working too. I can't want for the release of 2.0... :)

Ok here is the question: if I just did the update/upgrade, do I need the fixes? I am assuming the security fixes would be included in the upgrade. I am now running firefox1.5.0.2

next I would go to tools and extentions and see if any need updating. all mine are working fine.

I think FF checks for extension compatibility while updating, mine did...

Updated with no broken extensions :D

Same for me and the resource hog problem went too.
two extensions upgrades (which were notified) and better than new.
