The Mozilla Foundation has released Firefox 3.6.13 to address multiple

About 12-24 hours turn around isn't bad (I actually have no idea what the true turn around time was as I left Firefox running for about 2 days, so it might be less)! If you have Firefox and it hasn't updated, you might want to get some updates.
