IE vs. Firefox

[plumber4578]

What's everyone using? I have always used Firefox for the last few years but, I have been hearing that there is a lot of sucuruty issues with it right now. I just tried IE7 for the first time. It seems pretty fast. What's the better browser?

I think you got the security issues wrong. IE has the security issues, whereas Firefox is better.

that's what I always thought too. I think I have it right.

Actually there have been more flaws found in Firefox recently than IE. It is just that Firefox gets them patched faster. Hence why there is already 2.0.0.10 in the works to be released this coming week. When 2.0.0.9 was just released about a week ago.

Compared to Ie which only gets patched when the cycle comes around the 2nd Tuesday of every month.

I use Opera. I dont have to worry that much. It is more secure than both.
