Security updates to Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird

New versions of Mozilla products Firefox, Thunderbird (email) and Seamonkey (web suite) have all been released. Technical details of the fixes to Firefox can be found here: Security Advisories for Firefox; details for Firefox ESR, the business version of Firefox, can be found here: Security Advisories for Firefox ESR. Links to update info on the other products are here: Known Vulnerabilities in Mozilla Products.  I'm not having any issues with my Firefoxes after patching, so you should apply the updates.  Please call me if you need help with any of this.
