  Microsoft hides mystery Firefox extension in toolbar update
Time: 15:11 EST/20:11 GMT | News Source: Ars Technica | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

As part of its regular Patch Tuesday, Microsoft released an update for its various toolbars, and this update came with more than just documented fixes. The update also installs an add-on for Internet Explorer and an extension for Mozilla Firefox, both without the user's permission. As you can see in the Windows Update screenshot above, Microsoft does not indicate that the update will install anything for either browser. It's also not really clear what the installed extension actually does.
