Firefox 3.0.11 Released

The Mozilla Foundation has released a new version (3.0.11) of the Firefox Web browser.  According to the Release Notes. this update fixes a couple of bugs associated with Firefox’s bookmarks database.  It also addresses several security vulnerabilities, the details of which are given on the Security Advisories page.

The update should be available through the standard update mechanism (under the menus Help / Check for updates… ).  Note that, in order to install a new version, you must have sufficient privilege to write to the installation directories.  Alternatively, the installer package can be downloaded from the Firefox Download page.   Versions are available (in 60+ languages) for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS/X.

Because this update addresses a couple of potentially serious security issues, I recommend installing it as soon as you conveniently can.
