Late Tuesday, Mozilla.org released version 3.6.12 of its Firefox web browser. The new version, an 18.6 megabyte download, sports the following major change:

- Firefox 3.6.12 fixes a critical security issue that could potentially allow remote code execution.

Firefox 3.6.12 is available in more than 70 different languages and requires a G3, G4, G5 or Intel-based Mac, Mac OS X 10.4 or later and 128MB of RAM to install and run. If you’ve snagged the new version and have any feedback to offer about it, let us know in the comments.

    When I try to install this update, I lose all connection to the internet and the “fixes” that I have found, don’t fix the problem, so I have to use 3.6.10. How about a fix Mozilla!

    I use 3.6.12 and the plug-container.exe is huge. My browsing is considerably slower and I see recommendations to disable this file for some versions of Firefox. Is this a good thing to consider? I don’t dare to pull the trigger on this one.
