The Mozilla Foundation has closed several security holes in its products which allow attackers to inject malicious code for example via manipulated web pages. Affected are Firefox, Thunderbird and the Seamonkey browser suite.

An overview of the vulnerabilities is available at the Mozilla website. As the Mozilla based web browsers are highly popular, the cybercriminals develop malware for them as well. So update your Firefox to the current version 3.0.9, Thunderbird to 2.0.0.22 and Seamonkey to 1.1.17 or newer as soon as possible!
