"Despite Mozilla's ongoing security efforts, Firefox has come under intense scrutiny
from Michal Zalewski, a well-known independent security researcher who has published
a collection of previously undiscovered vulnerabilities in the browser during the
month of February. And on the eve of Mozilla's release of the revamped browser, dubbed
Firefox 2.0.0.2, Zalewski published information about yet another flaw in the product
involving a memory corruption issue that could allow attackers to take control of
computers running the software. Phishing and spoofing threats are among the attacks
likely to be aimed at the latest issue, according to Zalewski." http://www.infoworld.com/article/07/02/23/HNbrowservuln_1.html
