Firefox 3.6.6 was released on 06/26/2010 to address issues that some were experiencing with the new crash protection feature introduced in Firefox 3.6.4. NOTE: Version 3.6.5 was used for another product, so there is a "skip" in version numbers.

You should update to the newest version, Firefox 3.6.6.

Actually it is not 3.6.5 that has been used but the Gecko version 1.9.2.5 is used for the mobile Fennec version. --- If you have problems with updating then down;load the full version: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
