And this is a problem why? Firefox is in active development so any vulns
which are discovered will most likely be quashed fairly quickly. In
fact, people are actively encouraged to seek out and report
vulnerabilities... One I'm hoping gets seen to soon is the popup
workaround that some fabbotastic, trustworthy sites are using - I'm so
grateful to advertisers for circumventing my methods for blocking their
intrusive garbage!
