But at least it's all here.
Enjoy!

What Is It?
Eight vulnerabilities, have been identified in Mozilla Suite, SeaMonkey Suite, Firefox, and Thunderbird. Of the 8, two are classified as critical, and three are classified as moderately serious. Since all five of the serious bugs could allow remote code execution, we assume that the lower rating is justified by the probability of successfully exploiting the bug.
What Should You Do?
All eight issues are corrected in version 1.5.0.1, which is posted in the "Download Firefox" link of the Mozilla home page at http://www.mozilla.com/. If you use Firefox, the Mozilla Suite, the SeaMonkey Suite, or the Thunderbird email client, we encourage you to upgrade to the latest version as soon as possible. The table below lists download locations for all four.
Note that the SeaMonkey and Mozilla suites appear to overlap quite a bit. Consequently, you probably have only one of the two.
