[GLLUG] Firefox vulnerability on Windows boxes

[Stanley C. Mortel]

For any of you who still use Windows, or are in a position to help 
someone who does, this will be of interest.  The .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 
update quietly installs a serious vulnerability in Firefox by way of 
adding an extension.  This gives Firefox the same "feature" as Internet 
Explorer, i.e.,  the ability for websites to easily and quietly install 
software on your PC.  See the following link.
