Firefox v16 Pulled Down

Firefox 16 was pulled down by the vendor (Mozilla) after a serious vulnerability was discovered.
[Quote]  The bug was discovered by Gareth Heyes who blogged the issue with proof of concept code on Wednesday. By going public rather than reporting the issue to Mozilla, Heyes spurned the chance of a $3000 bug finders reward. Asked why, he replied, “I think Mozilla taking FF16 down is reward enough. Publicity LOL. 3K LOL.”
