I never knew that there were so many security holes in Mozilla's different software. Sort of making MS not look so bad...........;)

"Thunderbird 1.5.0.2 repairs 15 vulnerabilities, two marked "critical" by Mozilla, one of which was also patched in Firefox 1.5.0.2 on April 14. An older edition of Thunderbird, version 1.0.8, was also patched to plug 17 security holes.
Mozilla also updated its same-named suite, which includes a browser, e-mail client, newsgroup (http://www.techweb.com/encyclopedia/defineterm.jhtml?term=newsgroup&x=&y=) reader, IRC (http://www.techweb.com/encyclopedia/defineterm.jhtml?term=IRC&x=&y=) client, and HTML (http://www.techweb.com/encyclopedia/defineterm.jhtml?term=HTML&x=&y=) editor, to version 1.7.13 by fixing 20 flaws, 12 of them critical.
