Security researchers that carried out a code analysis of popular open source browser Firefox using automated tools, have discovered scores of potential defects and security vulnerabilities despite coming to the conclusion that the software was generally well written. A former Mozilla developer has criticised the methodology of the analysis and said it provides little help in unearthing real security bugs.

I do web dev I had to develop a printer friendly css to get firefox printing the page properly.
I use IE, FF, SF on daily basis. I can assure that I have never had any spyware when I use IE. I am aware that the average user can't sometimes avoid it. But believe me if you have the right setup for IE you wont get annoyed with spywares. I use FF for a few extensions I use for my dev and also to test compatibility.
EDIT:
And Btw the bug I posted in my 1st comment It was first reported in 2002. No Fix until now?
