Announcing 3.2.6.6

Sunday, October 18th, 2009

3.2.6.6 fixes a few semi-critical bugs that were introduced around version 3.2.6.2. These bugs deal with applying content permissions. Affected content permission modules are redirects, javascript and plugins.

Thanks to core fixes in Thunderbird (since about version 2 [though it might be earlier]), remote javascript cannot access high level elements (this means your emails, window chrome, etc).

If you use Thunderbird 3.0b4pre or higher, you are confirmed safe (as content permissions have been moved to core since that version).

I apologize for any problems this may have caused. This build has been uploaded to AMO and put on urgent release. In the meantime, you can download it here.

The tabs build has been updated. You can get it here.

Cookie support updates

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

Cookie support. Yes, you wanted it and no one had it.

However, that has totally changed thanks to Mark Banner, who has reported that the cookies patch has made it into the nightly builds of Thunderbird 3! This means that you can easily login to all websites (secure and unsecure) right from ThunderBrowse!

WOOHOO!

Thanks so much to Mark Banner and everyone else that helped get this patch out the door!
