Think again, exploits are appearing as fast at the browser grows in popularity.

Yes I agree. FireFox is pretty unstable when there is some big plugin for load. For example flash, or java, or WindowsMedia Player (that kills the browser very bad).

I dunno, perhaps we should back to old good LINKS

LOL

Before they all though *nix was better created, open source leading to less vulnerabilities..

when really, it's just cause no exploiters target programs that don't have huge userbases..
