firefox users beware!
Firefox users will have to recognize that the open-source browser is currently a greater security risk than Internet Explorer.
Researchers also found that over the past six months, nearly twice as many vulnerabilities surfaced in Mozilla browsers as in Explorer.
Twenty-five vulnerabilities were disclosed for Mozilla browsers, including Firefox, in the first half of the year, compared with 13 for Explorer, Symantec said. Eighteen of the Mozilla flaws were classified as high severity, compared with eight high-severity Explorer flaws.
from here.
particularly noteworthy cos me also using firefox sometimes... hmmm... seems like reverting to good old IE is a good option.. hehe.. better for me also.
