    One of the speakers at a Toorcon security conference session last weekend has admitted that claims he and an accomplice made regarding an "unfixable" flaw in Firefox, and a video of the two purportedly exploiting this flaw, were a not-so-elaborate hoax.

    "The main purpose of our talk was to be humorous," admitted Mischa Spiegelmock, in a statement made through Mozilla.org this afternoon.
