Question #77335 on Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/77335

    Status: Open => Answered

Tom proposed the following answer:
Shiretoko is a different web-browser from Firefox.  Both are produced by
Mozilla, along with other web-browsers; Seamonkey, BonEcho and perhaps
more.  Shiretoko does look almost identical - i haven't yet found the
differences.  Proper Firefox 3.5 had a vulnerability although the patch
has been released already i think - although i think only some Windows
machines were likely to be affected.  Anyway.  Try making sure you also
have proper firefox installed in your package manager, perhaps check in

Applications - Add/Remove Applications

I would leave it for about 2 days tho, just to make sure java doesn't get exploited - or go to "Edit" - "Preferences" and use the "Advanced" button beside java to make sure scripts don't get run automatically, at least until about Sunday or Monday ;)
Good luck and regards from 
Tom :)
