Comment:
If you're running an outdated version, that's something wrong with your
computer.
The "daily-browser-upgrade" game is not a game, nor is it daily. Chrome --
which updates automatically -- has a new major version every 6 weeks. The
other browsers are not so fast.
If we need to adjust for platform-specific versions, that's fine. But as
far as I know, every major browser currently updates to new version
numbers across all of their platforms at once these days.
3.6.17 is out of date, period. "Out of date" does not equal "EOL" or
"insecure." It means there's a new major version that supports better web
standards, more of HTML5/CSS3, is faster, and more stable.
Closing as WONTFIX.
