Firefox is really cool (was the browser of choice for my part of the category change job) and the people who are working on it are constantly improving it by making updates. By constantly, I mean sometimes-quite-annoyingly-frequently. Anyway, I have started looking at the release notes for these changes an example of which can be seen here.
While it is excellent that they are fixing the problems (Hoorah! Keep the updates coming if you are fixing things where “vulnerability can be used to run attacker code and install software, requiring no user interaction beyond normal browsing”.), what worries me slightly is that this in not really a list of “Known Vulnerabilities”: it is really just a list of “Fixed Vulnerabilities”....
Crash in JavaScript garbage collector
I want to know if any of the binmen were hurt.
I thought that the “stored password corruption” was interesting as well… :)
I’m sure it needs a hyphen.

Punctuate this, punks:
Grant where O’Hara had had had had had had had had had had had Rohn’s approval.
Firefox rules. I’m not allowed to install it at work though. Bah humbug.
Well, I’ve thought it rules for a year or so now, but the latest versions seem to crash all the time. I’m sometimes finding myself back in IE7.
I tend to agree with Matt. FF has been crashing a lot here too and occasionally, I’ve also had to use another browser.
I don’t have IE7 at work either, but I had it at home for a while. It seemed that as soon as I tried to open a 4th or 5th tab it would freeze, panic and shut down. FF hasn’t crashed on me so far.
Grant, where O’Hara had had “had had”, had had “had”. “Had had” had had Rohn’s approval.
And the wonderfully named Bugzilla lists all the bugs or “Known Vulnerabilities” in Firefox, for the folk who are helping to fix them.
