One simple reason why IE gets more hacks it's a bigger target cos more people use it, must be more fun to bring down a giant like MS than something 99% of people have never heard of.

Yea. I personally don't think that the whole security thing is 100% fair. IE is probably a bit more dangerous inherently because of its tight integration, though. But I've never gotten infected with a virus. Never had a spyware problem. I mean, common sense can save people from a lot of these problems.
But the browsing experience and the interface, IMHO, is better with FF.
(PS: The recent nightly builds have some cool features like forcing all new windows opened by external apps to open in a new tab.)
