Firefox 1.0.7 just a security fix

Wasn't the next version of Firefox supposed to be 1.5? I guess that's just to give the developers plenty of time to fix those holes... Security holes. If Marc's post on Symantec's dire warnings (their bread and butter, by the way) didn't perk up your ears, hopefully 1.0.7 is on your to-do list. This time we're talking all platforms. There are some particularly nasty problems out there with previous versions, like everybody's favorite buffer overflows, and a really snappy Linux problem involving shell command injection via URL. Lovely. Get it now!
