Pretty spot on article alright. Not too sure on the whole patching Firefox situation though. I was under the impression it (Firefox 1.5) would auto-update just fine unless they'd got limited permissions for the installation directory (Works just fine when I installed it at work anyway).

Yeah, I love to have a corporate network congested by spyware and viruses. I'm forced to disagree, to the point of calling the author on knowing not of what he speaks.

It's not a matter of what the better browser is, it's a matter of what the most manageable is, & Internet Explorer is the most manageable undoubtedly. I don't think Opera fares much differently in this regard either. I seem to recall reading somewhere corporate installation was something they were working on for Firefox 2 though (?).

my bad, forgot the title to that link; The unpatched CreateTextRange vulnerability in Internet Explorer is already being used by at least one Web site to install spyware on users' machines, a security organization said Friday. "We just received a report that a particular site uses the vulnerability to install a spybot variant," the SANS Institute's Internet Storm Center (ISC) warned Friday in an alert... "It's a relatively trivial mod[ification] to turn [the exploit] into something more destructive," the ISC warned.

Why are you trying to cover up a vulnerability in Linux? To make it not look so bad? I think it is important information people know that the only extremely critical vulnerability in Firefox is found in the fanboys beloved Linux.

"All Myths relate to running the default install of Firefox in Windows with no extensions." By your own admission the vulnerability doesn't count as it does apply to windoiws
