Internet Explorer "We've gotten some questions here today about public reports claiming there's a new vulnerability in Internet Explorer 7. These reports are technically inaccurate: the issue concerned in these reports is not in Internet Explorer 7 (or any other version) at all. Rather, it is in a different Windows component, specifically a component in Outlook Express. While these reports use Internet Explorer as a vector the vulnerability itself is in Outlook Express." Meanwhile, Adam has published an article on IE7 on his blog: "IE7 is a major plus for anyone who understands the internet and networks, and especially for those who do web development. Read on for a lengthy review."

Oh bullshit; I remember when Telecom NZ, the local Microsoft bumbuddy, bundled both a customised Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator; customers chose overwhelmingly to install Internet Explorer.

Customers made their choice, and sorry, Netscape was and still is a crap product; bloated, adware infected, memory hogging POS which needed to be dragged out into the street and put out of its missery.

Sorry, Firefox is no better with developers infatuation with XUL and so-called 'web services' which has never materialised around XUL.

"NotParker #2"? Please, just because I might share the occassional opinion which s the same as his, doesn't mean that we're some how related, the same or agree on everything.

The problem with you Firefox fanboys is simple, you get offended to easily, you abuse the points system, and worst of all, use adhomein attacks on people rather than debating the issue at hand.
