Vulnerability found in Firefox 3

As much as I like Firefox, and would like to try Firefox 3, this is the reason why I'm waiting. Let them get as many of the bugs out as possible before I download and install it.

I'm using Firefox 3 and so far I like it.  Since 2 was vulnerable to the same thing, I didn't increase my risk much by upgrading to 3.  I guess I'll just avoid malicious websites for awhile.  smiley

Have you tried adblock?  I swear the main way those websites get you is by the popups and ads.

Adblock is <3.
