Something is weird with Firefox. I have version 1.0.5. I went on today and found that my bookmarks are old. And my new extension I added were gone. It's like I was warped back in time. It is becoming unusually slow. I was talking to my friend and he said Firefox was hacked and he also said his Firefox is screwy also. There is a new version out for Firefox, 1.0.6 should I download it? I dont know when it came out though, so I dont know if it has a security update or not. This is really weird as something like this has never happened before and I really want it to be fixed as I think Firefox is was better than IE. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes you should download 1.0.6 as it is a security update in itsself. As far as if you think you may have been, lets not say *Hacked* lets say -infected-. Hackers are not all bad but thats a different post.
