Waterfox 18.0.1 is finally available!

Firstly I'd like to apologise to everyone for the unseemly delay, but this was a rather prudent bug to which there seemed to be no light at the end of the tunnel! But finally after working closely with Intel for a few months, we discovered the problem! You can read the thread here on the Intel C++ forums to see what went wrong. So far that has been 2 major bugs in the Intel C++ compiler that have been found and squashed thanks to the development of Waterfox!
