Re: Why You Should Dump Internet Explorer

a bit offtopic but i thing it is funny how people start running away instead of better controlling theirself...

yeh, ppl are hacking IE 'coz 95% of i-net users use it...
then, there are alternatives - firefox, opera and so on... ppl say they are more safe...

and just few weeks ago i read news that opera hase security issues and that a new version was released to make it "safe" again....

so i ask myself: if i have to download a complete new version of a browser to make it safe for the moment, or i can just click on windows-update and get the latest patches, which have not more filesize than the new browser-version, what is better for me?

i think it's just a question of time 'til hackers find special ways to "hack" other browsers, only at the moment it is just not worth the work for them...
