13 Jan, 2006 9:39 pm K-Meleon 0.9.12 released [sdp=68757]

About a year after the release of K-Meleon 0.9, a new official K-Meleon

build has been released, K-Meleon 0.9.12. The main goal for this Gecko 1.7.12-based release was security, and since this time a year ago, there have been numerous updates to the Gecko core to fix various security bugs that K-Meleon 0.9 was vulnerable to.

Of course, up until now, you could update K-Meleon yourself

with an updated Gecko, but 0.9.12 is an official package and includes many addidional bugfixes.

Here is a portion of the Release Notes:
