Looking at the current record, what makes you guys think firefox won't beat IE 6 for security holes. (o;
According to secunia.com: IE 6.x has had 80 advisories, of which 42% (34 advisories) were rated highly or extremely critical, and 3 critical advisories are still unpatched after several months. Firefox 1.x has had 16 advisories, of which 19% (3 advisories) were rated highly or extremely critical, and only 1 critical advisory is still unpatched, but it's only been in that state for a few days, and a patch is on its way. Soon, we will once again have no unpatched critical vulnerabilities with Firefox, and we will still have three or more with IE. I still like my odds with Firefox. -Eric -- arctic bears - email and dns services http://www.arcticbears.com _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
