Thread Name: Tech: Firefox Update Policy
Subject: RE: Tech: Firefox Update Policy
Well, I've just updated to FF V.11 and guess what: After it was finished installing I got a little grey box on my desktop blithely informing me that the Zone Alarm "security engine" (I think that's what they called it) is not compatible with this version of Firefox so it would not be functional until something-or-other was updated. WHY in eff's name can't they warn you BEFORE you commit yourself? Fortunately, I use Safari as my main browser so will just leave the Fox in its den for now. I ticked that tell-me-first box that Art mentioned above, and suggest that everyone else does too.

In the immortal words of Billy Connolly (anybody else know that sketch?): Well, ya %$!!??*&&$!-ing know now!

Bonnie in a bad mood :-(

PS: John, am I right in thinking that disabling Zone Alarm's "security engine" means that the damn thing won't work in the new Firefox? Please say No. (But if you say Yes I'll still love you anyway...)
