Talking Firefox 0.9.1 Release (update)Firefox 0.9.2 for Windows only (security fix)

Only for Windows as the issue does not affect Linux or Macintosh users.

Firefox 0.9.2 is now out (as one of the three fixes) to the fix the new Windows shell: security vulnerability reported. Also Thunderbird 0.7.2 and Mozilla 1.7.1

* Info and first two fixes can be found at: http://www.mozilla.org/security/shell.html

The third alternative is to set the pref network.protocol-handler.external.shell in about:config to false to remove the exploit. (This will only set it on your current profile, if you have more than one profile, or could be creating more, you should use the XPI or the updated build.)

Firefox 0.9.1 has been released for those who may be interested. Please install separately of previous build(s) OR uninstall earlier build first or else you may have a few bugs you don't want.

Fixed several theme/extension manager bugs and include an updated version of Winstripe that isn't on the trunk (1.8 branch) yet.

(Update)
(Aug.10) for Firefox 1.0 RC1
(Aug.31) for Firefox 1.0 RC2
(Sept.14) for Firefox 1.0 Release
