Microsoft has enough at risk that they do take threats seriously. This
isn't 1998 any more. Exploder isn't nearly as bad as the reputation
holds it as. Frankly, I've had far more problems, issues and virus
attacks through Firefox than I have through Explorer. To each his/her
own, but frankly, everything gets nailed once in a while. Just choose
two systems to work with and use one until an uncorrected attack is
identified and switch over to the other. Just go back and forth.
The two mega-giant corporations I've worked for this year both ban
Firefox on computers because of security flaws. We are able to only
use it selectively and have our systems targeted for extra virus
scans.
