Amazing ... Secunia PSI still considers latest upgrade of Firefox
_insecure_, not only because of its old Flash plug-ins, but because of
old Java 5, instead of latest v5.13 or better, v6.14
Trying to find an appropriate version of Java for Firefox may be
difficult, but I also have Mathematica 6.0 Wolfram Research - which has
Java 5 inside and PSI considers it insecure too. I don't dare to mess up
into Mathematica 6.
Kudos for Secunia PSI, it hurts - but it's good.
