New Hmmm.
What are you running?

My "about:" this line here:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0 (Debian package 1.0-2

Here is what policy shows:
[greg@duke:~]$ apt-cache policy mozilla-firefox\nmozilla-firefox:\n  Installed: 1.0-2\n  Candidate: 1.0-2\n  Version Table:\n *** 1.0-2 0\n        500 http://paladin.gregfolkert.net unstable/main Packages\n        500 ftp://ftp.us.debian.org unstable/main Packages\n        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status\n[greg@duke:~]$
If you are running Sarge, grab the .debs from Sid and just install them (dpkg -i).

The Sarge security team is just being formed. Might be a while 'til this gets into Sarge.

No matter how much Microsoft supporters whine about how Linux and other operating systems have just as many bugs as their operating systems do, the bottom line is that the serious, gut-wrenching problems happen on Windows, not on Linux, not on Mac OS. -- [link|http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1622086,00.asp|source]
