Mozilla Also Updated Thunderbird (v. 3.0.7 and v.3.1.3)
Earlier today we were reporting that Mozilla released updates for all its Firefox versions. Mozilla updated the older Firefox 3.5 to fix several stability and security issues, updated Firefox 3.6 to plug numerous security holes and add support for the X-Frame-Options HTTP response header (which will allow site owners to mitigate clickjacking attacks for example) and released the 5th Beta version of Firefox 4 to add support for the HSTS security protocol, support for a new Audio Data API, and to turn on Direct2D Hardware Acceleration (for Windows 7 users).
Mozilla’s web browser isn’t the only one who got updated. Mozilla’s email client has been updated as well. Just like with Firefox, several Thunderbird versions have been updated.
