Think Firefox is a safe browser? Think again!
 
Think again, exploits are appearing as fast at the browser grows in popularity.

The two new problems are easy to avoid, though: Just disable software installation and javascript....

Plus it crashes if you load certain SWF heavy sites.

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

I'm glad these pro *nix guys are finally seeing the light...
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..
