Firefox users everywhere rejoice, for the Mozilla team has released the next update for the Firefox 2.0 branch, bringing several important fixes.

Eight security fixes have been included in total, with three of them being labeled as critical. You can read the details in the 2.0.0.5 release notes, or head to our download section to grab the latest copy of Firefox.
