Mozilla flaws could allow attacks, data access

Multiple vulnerabilities that could allow an attacker to install malicious code or steal personal data have been discovered in the Mozilla Suite and the Firefox open-source browser.

Details of the nine flaws were published on Mozilla's security Web site over the weekend.

Ian Latter, senior security consultant at Internet security specialist Pure Hacking, said most of the vulnerabilities are based on the way the applications handle JavaScript.

First time you made this post it was "Firefox - 0" then you had "Firefox - 1", and now "Firefox - a few"... don't worry, in due time I'm sure you can catch up...

I used to wonder what the big deal was with tabbed browsing, but once I tried out Firefox, anything other than tabbed browsing seems backwards.

Toss in sweet-ass extensions like SessionSaver, and I was on Firefox like Barry Zuckercorn on a transsexual prostitute in the City of Industry.

Interresting, our web server is seeing more and more Firefox even though the percentage of Winblows users stays the same...

61.3% - IE
23.1% - Firefox
10.8% - Safari

However, it does appear that W3C has a proposed standard for a scripting language at the link that Jeff posted...

If you ever confuse Java and javascript again I will crush your head
