Cool, auto-update has just kicked in.

Possibly the first time there hasn't been an announcement on Neowin before it's available. Was surprised when I was prompted to update an hadn't seen anything on here, there's a first!

Hum... The URI handler problem's gone, so all we have to wait is for Microsoft to fix that Windows Feature.

Cheers for the Mozilla Fx team.

Fix what? The ability to execute files and URLs from the operating system? Or the ability to actually define what program should be used to open them? Yup, let's just hardcode every single program association into Windows. That'll stop people from crafting URLs with parameter escape sequences in them!
