Mozilla Firefox 16 Security Issue

Mozilla Firefox 16 Security Issue

Check your browser version:  CLICK HERE

Mozilla has taken the unusual step of announcing a "security vulnerability in Firefox 16.0"
and temporarily removing that version from their main download page as well as their automatic updater. We have done the same for Mozilla Firefox Edition 16.0 and 15.0.1 is now the stable version. As a precaution.
Users can downgrade to version 15.0.1 from this link:


and installing it over their 16.0 version (all settings will be preserved, of course). Users can also wait until tomorrow's release for the fix. 

Turn off Auto Update on Firefox: 
  1. From Firefox menu click Tools (1) 
  2. Click Option (2)
     
  3. From Option Windows Popup click Advanced (3)
  4. Click Update tab (4) 
  5. Give sign for: "Check for updates but let me choose whether to install them" (5)
  6. Click Ok. (6)
