Mozilla Releases Firefox 3.5.1 Update, Available for Download Now

Following recent security issues found in Firefox 3.5, Mozilla developers hasted things and came out with Firefox 3.5.1 which minimizes any possible bad effects to the user. Firefox 3.5.1 is a security and stability update that also addressed an issue that was causing Firefox to take a long time to load on some Windows systems.

The highly critical vulnerability was linked to the Firefox JavaScript Tracemonkey engine (related to the Just-in-time (JIT) JavaScript compiler), by which an attacker would have gained control of a machine if the user would have visited a malicious website. The new Firefox 3.5.1 is already available for download either on Mozilla.org or most of the popular download portals.
