Firefox released their latest update Firefox 3.5.2 today. In this update Several security issues are fixed. Also the Images with ICC profiles now render properly on all monitors are fixed.

The security updates include:

• Chrome privilege escalation due to incorrectly cached wrapper

• Crashes with evidence of memory corruption (rv:1.9.1.2/1.9.0.13)

• Location bar and SSL indicator spoofing via window.open() on invalid URL

• Data corruption with SOCKS5 reply containing DNS name longer than 15 characters

In these first two fixes were very critical since these Vulnerabilities can be used to run attacker code and install software, requiring no user interaction beyond normal browsing.

So everyone should install these updates as soon as possible for a safer browsing.

Nero AG has released a freeware data burning utility for the Microsoft Windows platform. The new freeware tool is limited to data discs and CD, DVD copies, but it is totally free and is not time limited. A cut down copy of the software might be exactly what some users were looking for in the first place.

Of course there are freeware tools like ImgBurn which can do much more than this free veriosn of nero. Anyway this free version tool keeps the ease-of-use of Nero StartSmart that might be more attractive to users new to burning. The freeware version will work with Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7.
