browser vulnerability check thingy

I chose to run "all available tests" and my browser has no vulnerabilities.
But I use firefox :D

Although in saying that, I also ran the test in Internet Explorer 6.0 with sp2 installed and it found no vulnerabilities. Although quite curiously, it managed to launch Dreamweaver all by itself which is fairly

I'm on Firefox 1.0 too, clean as a whistle :)

It's kinda expected that IE 6.0 with SP2 patched up to the hilt will be okay, it's all about making sure you're running updates and watching out for vulnerabilities. Yes, even Windows can be secure ;p But that doesn't detract from the fact that Windows is less secure by design, with ActiveX controls and the rendering engine tied so tightly into the operating system itself. There will always be more vulnerabilities coming out for Windows, which will effect the system far more critically than any other browser; which is partly proven by the fact that there are 35 tests which the security check runs, and only 8 of them are applicable to Mozilla (and Mozilla-based browsers, such as FireFox, Safari, Netscape, etc).

And that's before you even get into the fact that IE is a horrible pile of crap which perverts the web's standards in an attempt to make them proprietary and force people onto IE and the Windows operating system.. :p

True, it does piss me off when making sites that 100% perfect HTML/CSS looks fine in FF but terrible in IE - as well you know :p

I'm still a bit worried by its random ability to launch Dreamweaver though...
