Firefox 0.10.1 was released today to fix a security flaw that could potentially allow a malicious site to erase files from the user's Download directory. If you already have Firefox 0.10 installed, you can go to Tools, Options, and choose Advanced, go to Software Updates and choose Check Now to grab the patch."
Wow!
That was both quick and painless..
I even managed to get my weatherfox and a few other plugins updated right away too! I keep forgetting the update actually WORKS with this version.
Thanks Ethics! :happy:

Yah!!! :)
Most welcome.
OT, but is there a bugmenot extension available yet for this version?

My bugmenot still works and I never updated when I upgraded to PR1.
I'm using bugmenot 0.6 with the new Firefox release.
I did a fresh install of this version on my work machine, and Bugmenot does not show up as an available extension :(
I'm confused - I have version 1.0 installed. Is this a different version than what you're talking about here?

Thanks for the heads up!
Well, I just upgraded to this new fixed version and bugmenot will not work. I went to the mozilla extension site and the bugmenot extension has been removed from Mozilla entirely...for all versions :(

You can still find it here: http://extensions.roachfiend.com/index.php#bugmenot
Not sure if it works, but it's there.

I did the update through the update function in Firefox and bugmenot still works for me.

It's a patch for the one you have. And you have 1 PR not 1.0
Thanks Gregg! It installed, now I'll have to see if it worked.

OHH, ok. I did the update thingie just in case, but I don't notice anything different. All of my extensions seem to work. Did I do something wrong?

Nope, you did everything right as long as you got that success message at the end of the update. I didn't have to change a thing on mine either, worked like a charm.
