After the release new patches for Firefox, 12 flaws discovered have been patched. Five of the patches issued in Firefox 1.5.0.4 were labeled “critical”. Mozilla has released four security updates to the 1.5 edition since it was made available last November.

Why you need to update your Firefox?
You need to update your Firefox because multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Firefox. HTTP response smuggling attacks, could allow malicious code writer to steal login cookies or other sensitive data if the user has an account at the spoofed website.

Beside than that, hackers can run buffer overflaw to unpatch Firefox that would allow them plant malicious code on victim’s computer. Other flaws could let attacker run malicious JavaScript without the user’s permission.

I have updated my Firefox to the latest version. How about you? ;)

    I just downloaded this extension today and found it’s really cool… As the title says, with Tab Mix Plus you can do many things with your tab. You can change the way your tabs work. Such as, you can choose to put close icon on each of your tabs. So you don’t need to right click and choose close tab each time you want to close the tabs.

    And if you click a link on any sites while you’re browsing, the link will be opened in new tab although it has been set to open in new window. Beside than that, each tabs will show progress of the sites that you open. So, you will know the progress of the site when it’s load. And it also will show you with red text title if the tab is not read yet.

    Actually there are many other features but I don’t have time to try it all. So, if you want to test and use it, check out the official site or click the download link below to download the lastest version.
