Some members of the Firefox camp weren't happy about any criticism of their favorite browser. "Thanks but no thanks for the information. We still trust and love FireFox," said Abe
:rolleyes: :whistling

The security problems in IE is one of the littlest reason why I liek Firefox better anyway.
Firefox is just plain better in every way. :01:

I use both because of the wife . New Securtity updates coming . They don't say what they are tho.



Microsoft has announced that it will release three patches for its Windows operating system next week.

The fixes, which will carry a maximum threat rating of "critical," will be issued Tuesday, the company said.

Do people actually take offense that their browswer is being criticized? That makes me not want to be a part of this board, if software and emotions are linked some how. I have seem some pretty heart-filled debates between IE and Firefox on this board.
