Non- windows users do not have to update- no security flaw on the other Firefox builds.
BTW the same flaw applies for Thunderbird email client as well.

Mozilla FireFox v0.9.3 available

version v0.9.3 out,didn't find a changelog yet,surely some bugs fixes :0

venim · Aug 5, 2004

Thanx for the news serjer!!

As for the changelog security fixes for all mozilla products :

They address 4 security bugs (linked from the Mozillazine article). Unlike Firefox 0.9.2, these can't be fixed with just a XPI upgrade, so you'll have to download a new binary and install.

Firefox/1.0 PR (NOT FINAL)

Firefox/1.0 PR (NOT FINAL) hits the latest nightlies, works fine so far!

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040902 Firefox/1.0 PR (NOT FINAL)

Firefox/1.0PR (NOT FINAL) itself works fine. However, you will find that it disables the majority of extensions and themes. This is because the maxversion in each extension's install.rdf is for 0.9.3+ or below. It is a simple matter to edit the version number to 0.10.0. See http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=105222 for details. This will enable said extensions and themes.

Or...download some 1.0PR compiled extensions from:
http://www.extensionsmirror.nl/extfirefox/
I already use CuteMenus 0.4 and UserAgentSwitcher 0.6

I don't use the nightlies, but I have about 20 or so extensions right now.. I was thinking about the nightlies, but don't want to lose using them..

prolly just wait for the next release..

Never tried a theme yet.. how stable are those?

@JeRrYFaR
You could just make a new profile to test with FF. Since extensions/theme are (generaly) installed in the profile, you can make a new one to test v1.0 PR while keeping v0.9.3 and its full-of-extensions profiles.

Cool! I'm gonna try that then.. thanx for the tip...
