New FF Update

Post by Duper »

That's fireFox, not Final Fantacy. ;)

Normally, I wouldn't post about a FF update but check out the fixes in this one.

I wsa just talking to a coworker in the tech Dept today about viruses I've been getting recently via FF.

They have been quiet trojan viruses, but as I don't browse seedy sites, I was a bit puzzled. He suggested that it might be getting through with java. Which made some sense to me given the sites I DO browse. Java vulnerabilities are in the fixes listed. A number of memory fixes are in there too.

Check it out.

Updated, though automatic updates would have done it within the next 24 hours anyway. Thanks for the info.

There has been a memory leak for some time. I hope it gets fixed this time around. at least is sounds like it has.

We should try that mulitiple animated pic to see if it buries this update.
