Face it: There is no 'safe' Web browser

By David Sheets

Netscape’s turn from wonderful to woeful last week set a new Internet speed record for embarrassment.

Hours after the once-proud Web browser’s Version 8 upgrade hit the streets, it limped back into the garage for an overhaul. Turns out the new browser had old parts from a rival browser, Firefox, and those parts were faulty. The flaws allowed dishonest types to sneak into computers through online connections and snatch user passwords and other personal information.

St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Kinda funny in a way. :tazz:

It doesn't matter for me - Firefox is still alot safer than IE.
I'm not looking for a perfect browser because there isn't one.
I'm just looking for the best browser/safest browser on the market. And that is Firefox.
