how about for ubuntu? :whistle:

They should put out the security update soon on the Ubuntu software repositories. The update-notifier in the system tray should eventually notify you when that happens.

In the mean time, here's the Official Linux package for Mozilla Firefox.

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/fir...ox-1.0.3.tar.gz

What I did was extracted it:

Opened a terminal window

Went to the download location using the cd command

sudo tar zxvf firefox-1.0.3.tar.gz -C /usr/lib

Opened up nautilus as root

sudo nautilus --no-desktop --browser

Went to /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox

Copied the links from my plugins in the Firefox plugins folder to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins

Copied firefox.sh from the Firefox folder to /usr/lib/firefox

Renamed /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox as /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox-1.0.2

Renamed /usr/lib/firefox as /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox

Keep in mind some of the defaults that Mozilla sets in preferences are different than the ones Ubuntu sets.

That's for the impatient people. Otherwise wait for .deb file to turn up at debian.org or the Ubuntu Update Notifier.

And Firefox still crashes when I vist this page!

My eyes bled when I saw it. I think that's not good.

Hey, i just thought ill comment on one thing. I just recently made the switch from IE to firefox. At first i was hesitant because of the features and stuff mainly because im a web devoloper but... holy cow! what an amazing browser! The thing in my oppionion that firefox hold out on over ie is the ammount of customization and tweaking thats possible. hell, if you wanted to you could make firefox into IE except a hell of alott faster. Firefox know has my vote hands down to beat the hell out of ie and put it to rest.

    • ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard is 27% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE is currently $159.99 on Amazon, down from $219.99. That's 27% off and $60 saved on a keyboard that combines retro and modern design, while being one of the most responsive and adaptable 75% boards available right now (purchase link down below). The ROG Falchion Ace comes with the HFX V2X magnetic switches that allow you to set actuation anywhere between 0.1mm and 3.5mm with 0.01mm fine-tuning steps. It also comes with Rapid Trigger, a feature that resets the key the moment you release it rather than waiting for a fixed reset point, which makes a noticeable difference in fast-paced games. And finally, an 8,000Hz polling rate should make the response time feel instant. The build quality is decent, with dense plastic and powder-coated aluminum, which is expected from a keyboard at this price point. There’s also the onboard adjustment wheel, which lets you tweak actuation and Rapid Trigger sensitivity without opening any software. For competitive gaming, the ROG Falchion Ace is hard to beat at this price. And those who appreciate old-school hardware, especially those white keyboards we’ve all grown up with, will likely also appreciate the looks of this keyboard. A carry case is included.
