IE v Firefox: the battle begins
,----[ Quote ]
| Surprisingly, Firefox seems to be leading early on in the download race,
| and it's been more of a hit with the critics.
|
| "Within 24 hours of the official launch on Tuesday, there were over 2
| million people using Firefox 2, and we were seeing a peak rate of more
| than 30 downloads per second from our website," said Firefox developer
| Mike Beltzner in a post to his personal blog.
|
| [...]
|
| Two Firefox 2 bugs have been reported, which allegedly cause the browser to
| crash. Mozilla has rebutted one of the bug reports, and say that the other
| can't be "reliably exploited".
|
| "I would call it just noise," Window Snyder, Mozilla's security chief, told
| CNET News.com.
|
| Two flaws have also been found in IE7. Both potentially expose users to
| phishing attacks, but Secunia has labelled them "less critical".
