Right... The LO people provided you with the versions on
http://libreoffice-na.us/multi-version/extras.html ?

I'll not bother to go through each but I will comment regarding the
Mozilla ones that you list:

Mozilla Firefox 3.6.13

http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox36.html
Note the security issues addressed since 3.6.13.

Thunderbird 3.1.7

http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/thunderbird31.html
Note the security issues addressed since 3.1.7

Sunbird is EOL and no longer supported.
