Firefox 2.0.0.12 Just Became Available

Some time has passed since the last update to Firefox, don't you think? Anyway, Firefox just got a new update a few hours ago, so here you have it - ladies and gentlemen, Firefox just got update to version 2.0.0.12! What's new? To be honest, I have no idea yet, but we'll discover that together in just a few moments...


Unfortunately, it seems there's no big deal about the new Firefox. In fact, we couldn't expect too much from a minor update - after all, this is Firefox 2.0.0.12, not Firefox 3 (hopefully, we'll get that before next Christmas...). According to the Mozilla site, "This release fixes a number of security and stability issues discovered in Firefox 2.0.0.11.", and nothing more. These being said, let's see what issues have been solved by this update, shall we?

Well, it seems I was a bit wrong, because we have the update which fixes most flaws since Firefox 1.5.0.5! Pretty impressive, although only 3 of the 10 vulnerabilities fixed were critical. Of the remaining issues fixed, one had a high impact, 3 were moderate, and the remaining 3 were minor security vulnerabilities.

Now, there's only one thing remaining, if you didn't do it already, especially if you didn't enable "Automatically check for updates" - go to the Help menu, choose "Check for updates", and be sure to update your Firefox browser!
