stupid Firefox autoupdates

Apparently Mozilla is having some problems with its 1.5.0.6 release of Firefox. (According to my friend Dawn.) She told me of her problems a couple days ago and since then I've avoided upgrading until 1.5.0.7 comes out.

As many people know, Firefox comes with this auto-updater option that allows the browser to download new updates own its own. I turned off this feature on my desktop PC and my iMac. However, it seems I forgot about my laptop.

I just got a pop-up saying that 1.5.0.6 will be installed the next time I run Firefox.

Dammit.

May I ask you if Google is the owner of Firefox?

I see Firefox on Google AdSense.

God bless.
