Mozilla is currently distributing an update to their Firefox web browser. The new Firefox 3.0.6 version is already available on the official Mozilla website as well as in Firefox. The browser should be able to pick up the update automatically if it is configured that way. The update process can be initiated by clicking the Check for updates button in the Firefox help section.

Firefox 3.0.6 fixes several security and stability issues of Firefox 3.0.5. One critical, two high, one moderate and two low rated security issues have been fixed in the web browser. The bug list contains dozens of issues that have been fixed in Firefox 3.0.6 but the main reason for the update were the security and stability issues.

It is advised to update the web browser as soon as possible to fix the security issues and prevent the possibility of exploiting those vulnerabilities on the computer system.
