Firefox 38.0.1 fixes crashing problem in 38.0

Estimated reading time: 1 minute.

There were some serious problems with Firefox 38.0, and the developers pulled it from distribution almost immediately after its release.

Mozilla moved quickly to resolve these issues, and yesterday released Firefox 38.0.1, which fixes most of the problems in 38.0. One problem apparently remains unresolved: “Responsive images do not update when the enclosing viewport changes.”
