Mozilla & Gecko clones "Now that Firefox has become the first viable contender to Internet Explorer in years, its popularity has brought with it some unwanted attention. Last week's premature disclosure of a zero-day Firefox exploit came a few weeks after a zero-day exploit for Internet Explorer appeared on the Internet. Firefox not only has more vulnerabilities per month than Internet Explorer, but it is now surpassing Internet Explorer for the number of exploits available for public download in recent months."

Heh, that's a good point. Except I would still rather use Firefox and avoid the hassle. I can't do without all the extensions anymore, its now unsurpassed adblocking capabilities, and I find it to be faster than IE. The ONLY complaint I have about Firefox is its handling of streaming video, haven't had any other problems with it.
