New Firefox Release
Mozilla has recently announced an update to Firefox that addresses a number of security issues and other bug fixes. This includes the IDN homograph spoofing problem I noted a few weeks ago and several other fixes to guard against spoofing and arbitrary code execution.
Make note of the following: "Prior to installing Firefox 1.0.1, please ensure that the directory you've chosen to install into is clean and doesn't contain any previous Firefox installations." Your extensions, bookmarks, etc. will automatically transfer over provided they are compatible with the new version since your profile information is stored elsewhere. You can read the rest of the release notes and download the new version at http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/releases/.
