Re: Firefox 1.0.4 out

Re: Firefox 1.0.4 out
You also cannot get to a lot of extensions and themes until you have update to 1.0.4

Re: Firefox 1.0.4 out
This is also now available as an update, so if you've already got Firefox you can just click the red arrow that appears top-right.
Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere but FF fans might find the latest market share stats interesting:

The incident is the latest black eye for the open-source software project's security image. While vulnerability researchers frequently flogged Microsoft for the number of security holes found in its Internet Explorer browser, now flaw finders are pinpointing more security holes in Firefox and, in many cases, using the same techniques.
