I'm sorry to report that GNU IceCat 38 can no longer be safely used, due
to critical security flaws that are believed to allow remote code
execution.  I was unable to backport upstream fixes from 45.3 to 38.

Until IceCat 45.3 is available, I recommend that you use Epiphany.

   Regretfully,
      Mark
