Come in! Have a margarita or root beer? How about some fresh trout? :)

Firefox security hole found.

Has to do with a combination of IFRAMEs and the mozilla auto-update-installer feature, and allows execution of arbitrary code. They're working on it, no known instances of actual use, etc. I believe the recommended short-term workaround is to disable Javascipt. Be watching for an update.
