Firefox 3.5.1 update for security flaw....


Firefox released the much hyped 3.5 version last week and now they have a problem. The problem is with a security flaw in the newly released version and now they have a fix for that. The newest version from Mozilla, Firefox 3.5.1 is the answer to the security flaw. One thing that I feel bad is that how come after so much alpha, beta testing they still have these flaws in security. They didnot directly admit that there is a flaw but they just gave out the update saying that it fixes lots of security issues and fixes.

But we should appreciate the firefox guys as they are admitting their mistakes and are finding out solutions unlike IE which waits till the doom falls on everyone and then they cooly say that someone hacked into the security flaw. Good going Firefox. You can get your update by just clicking on "help" tab in your firefox browser and then click on "check for updates". You will be prompted to download the latest version of firefox i,e., Firefox 3.5.1. You will definitely need to restart your browser for it to take effect.
