My Firefox Version

  



  • This was helpful up to Version 63.03 for me. Then FireFox removed the option to manually update. Starting with V. 64.0 you get the nags telling you it is out of date, and cannot get rid of them. I update FireFox once a month on a schedule, MY schedule.
  • On Windows and Linux. Open your Firefox browser. Near the top right corner, click the menu button ( ), click help ( ) and select About Firefox.; The About Mozilla Firefox window will appear and the version number is listed underneath the Firefox name.

A new bug discovered in the Firefox web browser could allow attackers to gain access to files stored on a computer through malicious code injected into the browser’s built-in PDF viewer. Researchers first discovered attackers exploiting the weak spot in Firefox through a malicious advertisement on a news site in Russia that searched for sensitive user files and uploaded them to a remote server.

Safety for every device.

Security is no longer a one-machine affair. You need a security suite that helps protect all your devices – your Windows PC, Mac, Android smartphone or your iPad.

As news of the vulnerability in Firefox spreads, it is likely that other attackers will now try to take advantage of it before users download a patch. Luckily, Mozilla has already released a patch and Firefox users are advised to update to the latest version of Firefox (39.0.3) immediately.

Here’s how to do a manual update for Firefox:

  1. On the menu bar click the Firefox menu and select About Firefox.

  2. The About Firefox window will open and Firefox will begin checking for updates and downloading them automatically.

  3. When the updates are ready to be installed, click Restart Firefox to Update.

Don’t wait until a threat strikes.

Security threats and malware lurk on Windows PCs, Macs, and Android and iOS devices. If you use more than one device – like most of us do – you need an all-in-one security suite. Meet Norton Security Premium.

How Firefox compares to other browsers

Get all the speed and tools with none of the invasions of privacy. Firefox Browser collects so little data about you, we don’t even require your email address to download. That’s because unlike other browsers, we have no financial stake in following you around the web.

Compare Firefox to:
Blocks third-party tracking cookies by default
Autoplay blocking
Blocks social trackers
OS availability
In-browser screenshot tool
Primary password

We block the ad trackers. You explore the internet faster.

Ads are distracting and make web pages load slower while their trackers watch every move you make online. The Firefox Browser blocks most trackers automatically, so there’s no need to dig into your security settings.

Firefox is for everyone

Available in over 90 languages, and compatible with Windows, Mac and Linux machines, Firefox works no matter what you’re using or where you are. Make sure your operating system is up to date for the best experience.
