Yeah, this is why Mozilla is strongly encouraging Mozilla 1.0 users to go
1.0.1. (You'd think they could provide some details about the security
holes in their release notes, but no.) Linux is going to 1.0.1 any second
now; been a slight holdup because I have been busy (aside from
non-infoagents tasks) combing the universe for any signs of an equivalent
upgrade for Sun. Still haven't found one.
