It looks like this is an update to fix things on windows pc's such as crashing ! which I've had a couple in the last 2 days.

www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/57.0.2/releasenotes/

The strange thing about this update is that after the update firefox normally opens up to the last page I'm on. This time it open up to a website I was on a hour ago and since viewing that website I had visited atleast a dozen other websites. I'm not sure why it opened to that website.

Nancy, before I checked Help>About Firefox I'd thought that you'd missed my post about 57.0.1, which is what I've got now, & were posting the same thing. But then I noticed that you're talking about .2.

Seems to me that Firefox is updating more frequently than usual. If I'm recalling rightly this is the 3rd update in about a month. Anyway, I'll probably get .2 soon. Yesterday I got a 71MB Ubuntu base update, that base update is normally what I get first before a FF update
