http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-0995

The only real fix is to make certain you have updated to versiion 2.0.0.2 or 1.5.0.10 or later.

If you have automatic update on, the fixed versions have probably already been installed. One problem is that even with automatic update, you may need to confirm installation and restart of Firefox even if the new version has been automatically downloaded.
