    There is an xpi update avavilable from update.mozilla.org but it only installs on a single profile.

    You have to install it on each profile you have.

    You're not wrong there -
    ShellBlock 1.0 By mozilla.org
    ShellBlock fixes Bug 250180, by disabling the shell protocol handler.
    This fix is for users of all Mozilla products on Windows XP.

    It's nice to see that the problem was fixed swiftly. In fact compared to a certain other browser, it's just nice to see the problem fixed at all.
