Why are these so many Firefox updates now (Sept 2014)???? Every week it seems I have to do another update.
This is ridiculous! I am so sick of doing Firefox updates. Firefox was my favorite browser but this is getting ridiculous. I have lost count of how many I have had to do this last month or 2. This is really really annoying and I am considering going back to the painful choice of using Safara or Chrome - UGH! From what I've read, mozilla is supposed to do an update every 6 weeks or so, is that incorrect?
If you have something to fix, fix it and wait until a reasonable length of time, then release a bunch of little fixes on one bigger lump update.
Arghhhh, sorry just had to vent somewhere

The minor updates if they ever happen are for security and or stability fixes that could not wait for next Release. The 32.0.3 was for Security while 32.0.2 was for to fix a top crasher that some 32.0 users were getting.

By my rough calculation, a "ChemSpill" minor update occurs like every 4 or 5 release versions on the average. As far as having more that one "ChemSpill" update per version, that is rare. And having 3 "ChemSpill" updates for Firefox 32 - that is a first. I don't recall that happening since the Rapid Release schedule was instituted over three years ago.
If you use automatic updates(as I do on the more active beta channel) you'll hardly know it is happening.

I've never had trouble with this.
The thing is it's better not to update right away and wait a couple of days, cause usually new version is bugged someway and there's new update right after it's release... Better test properly and release updates less frequently please - this repel so many ppl from using Firefox.
And what is the last annoyance for the user not willing to obey FF developers? If you don't update to the latest version, you have to manually allow Flash plugin on every single page using it... well played :p
The flash problem you have has nothing to do with Firefox version or update but due to using a older vulnerable version of Flash that is on blocklist.
