Er… Except the ones that were fixed for Firefox 1.0.3, of course…

It affects Firefox.
> Most serious fastback bugs:
Interesting choices. I’d have picked the potential crashers and such as more serious…. ;)

I noticed that some of the holes fixed for Firefox 1.0.3 were missing in trunk, but I didn’t take the time to figure out which ones.
What is the impact of 292589 on Firefox? On Thunderbird? (Answer by email if you want.)
I didn’t see any crashers with many votes in the list of fastback bugs, and I didn’t see any topcrashers, so I didn’t include them in my list.

Hey guys, how is it possible that I can’t install any new version of Firefox? Is there any problem?
