The Mozilla Foundation have released version 1.0.4 of their popular Firefox browser, which fixes the two major problems discovered earlier this week.

The new version fixes no less than six security flaws, including the two 'extremely critical' flaws. Other fixes include one which prevents another method of running code without permission on a user's computer.
