Is Security The Secret Of Firefox's Success?
,----[ Quote ]
| It's Firefox's reputation for superior security, rapid patching of security
| holes and its multitude of browser extentions that has allowed it to win
| converts among corporate and personal Web users

| But one of the most prominent reasons for outbreaks occurs through ActiveX
| running on Internet Explorer. Malicious hackers use ActiveX as an opportunity
| to exploit users. Realizing that, in 2006, Microsoft started providing more
| safeguards in Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer 7 does do a better job of
| protecting users against ActiveX outbreaks. But according to a security
| report from research firm Secunia, there were more ActiveX outbreaks (366
| total vulnerabilities) in 2008 than those that broke out in 2007. It was a
| black eye for Microsoft.

| navigate the web most, as well as how users access the site.
