[Physstaff] Firefox vulnerability on Windows

[Timothy Briggs]

Hello,

There’s a security vulnerability in Firefox:

http://arstechnica.com/security/2016/11/firefox-0day-used-against-tor-users-almost-identical-to-one-fbi-used-in-2013/
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/11/30/possible_tor_browser_decloak_zero_day_dropped_patch_in_works/

A patch is being worked on at the moment, but it may be best not to use Firefox browser on Windows until a new version is available.

Thanks,

Timothy
