This is kinda troll, so, forgive me.

Until the last Ubuntu Security Announcement (the one about 2 days ago),
Firefox from Ubuntu was exploited by the JavaScript vulnerability.  Test
it your self in this site[1] (again, with Firefox package version
"1.0.2-0ubuntu5", not the one that just been released).  If you want
more info about that vulnerability, check out this link[2].

Again, sorry for being troll.
