This might get people to realise that Firefox isnt a panacea for all MS ills. (still beats IE7 into a cocked hat though)

All browsers and OS (with very few exceptions) have security issues and need to be kept up to date.

Cheers Sam :smt001

Did all ours this morning after seeing this.
D'yknow - only Monday I switched over on my own machine from Mozilla Suite to Mozilla Firefox.

I think the suite is more stable, but now that tabs have been added, Firefox is more user friendly.

I use an ff derivative and aren't actually sure whether it`ll take the update. Mebbe I should go back to the basic ff.
Will investigate later.

Auto updates seem to have dealt with ff and extensions ok. :smt001
The only thing they couldnt update is a password storage facility I use ... which is worrying....lol
