Firefox 2.0.0.2 Released - A couple of Security Updates in this one.

jlhaslip
Firefox can be up-graded as of Feb 23rd, 2007 to the newest release 2.0.0.2 which includes a few minor security fixes. Nothing Major for most Firefox users.

One of the Greatest things about Firefox is how simple the swap to a new version. Simply uninstall the old version and then install the new one. All of your old settings and Bookmarks and extensions/Add-ons are still in effect. You barely notice any change in the versions what-so-ever.

Everything you need to know (and more) is found >> HERE <<. Including the download link.

Have a good day playing with the Fox2...

Although the firefox browser updates itself, which also is configured to update itself by default, it is always good to know that it had an update, i am always updating my software, especially software i use.

Thanks for the news.

You don't even have to uninstall the old version... Firefox tells you that a new version is ready and if you want to update. It downloads the update and the next time you run Firefox it does the update. Very fast, no troubles or complications like with Internet Explorer (or with Windows... WGA really kills what fun was left in updating wink.gif ).
I have read in a computer magazine that last year Internet Explorer users were in danger from all kinds of viruses, spyware, etc. over 250 days, while Mozilla Firefox users were in danger for only 60 days. The fact that Firefox is free really helps bug finding. While Internet Explorer and Microsoft relays on this own staff to find and report bugs, Firefox has a wide community of users which find, report and fix bugs very fast.
I'm just sorry that Firefox 2 still doesn't support my language (only v1.5 does). And it's the ONLY language in the list ... sad.gif

    The latest releases of Ubuntu , Kubuntu , Xubuntu and Edubuntu came out this afternoon. This
    is a long term support (LTS) release, so should also be adopted by companies needing the security of

    first to include the latest KDE4 desktop environment, along with a CD offering the older KDE 3. KDE4
    looks incredible and brings a lot of advantages over the last release of KDE, and should encourage
    more people to switch to Kubuntu....

  7. Paris Hilton Released On Health Issues - (10)
    Wow this story does not make much sense to me. So first, the judge released her just 4 days after
    she first entered the prison because of "health issues." Seriously? What health issues could Paris
    Hilton possible have? I mean, don't you think it is kind of weird that these miraculous health
    issues didn't keep her out of jail in the first place? And then the judge let her off on house
    arrest. O my, what a horrible punishment. I have to stay in my multimillion dollar mansion for a
