Micah,<br>

As I said, <span style="white-space: pre;"> there is many other
software that some one could update safely not just Firefox 4</span>.
It's not a matter of one or two Apps, please read the Draft<br>

You can get the latest Firefox stable release here:<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://launchpad.net/%7Emozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable">https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable</a><br>
We'll upgrade Lucid to whichever Firefox is current when its
version's<br>
branch (3.6) is EOL.<br>
