Firefox 3.5.1 Released

Posted by timothy on from the dot-oh-always-begs-for-fixes dept.

alek writes "A day after Slashdot reports about a self-inflicted vulnerability in Firefox 3.5, Mozilla releases 3.5.1. It addresses that security issue, but also fixes the annoying slow-startup on Windows. Bummer the UNIX wars have subsided, because apparently they also had to fix a problem where Firefox on a Sparc platform would crash when visiting www.hp.com!"

    Fuck this open source shit! This just proves that your precious bullshit has vulnerabilities as well.

    Slashdot is the haven for FOSS fags.



    That is all.

      I'm surprised you would be running linux since it doesn't run any software or games you use and crashes all the time with you. I'll admit if I was a games junky I wouldn't use linux....I'd use a playstation. I'm sure you love windoze and all it's yummy malware goodness but I think you're a blatant liar about how many crashes you've seen on linux. I haven't seen a single system lockup since the 2.6 kernel and I doubt a windoze fanboy that can't find any decent linux software runs linux often enough to see "plent" of linux crashes. I call bullshit.

    Now I might be wrong, but neither Chrome, Opera, Safari or even IE has needed updates are frequently as Firefix does...

    More holes than swiss cheese...
