Greetings to the entire Eclipse Community,

I noticed that r3dfox does not have an automatic update procedure for either the portable or installable versions, and the manual update procedure is a bit inconvenient.

I would like to update r3dfox only when security flaws are serious and a patch is necessary: how can I know when serious security flaws have been fixed between one version and another, and ignore releases that, even if not applied, do not compromise the security of my system?

I hope you can help me. Thank you.

Okay, thank you.

For details on security bugs and other fixes, I guess I can always refer to the official Firefox changelog available here:
