Even the new version 7 isn't as safe as mozilla/firefox

It seems that the more educated someone is the more likely they are to use Firefox. The others just want to be hard headed until their PC's are screwed.
IE 7 will simply inherit the insecure technologies that IE 6 already has. I do give credit to Microsoft for at least trying to make these technologies in the new IE 7 less vulnerable to hackers though, but the sad thing is that these technologies cannot be eliminated form IE unless they just completely base their browser on something else - it's not going to happen.
United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team:
"There are a number of significant vulnerabilities in technologies related to the IE domain/zone security model,...ActiveX (etc)...It is possible to reduce exposure to these vulnerabilities by using a different web browser"

Well, yes. Some of us do. And for no good reason, either. Thanks for the reminder.
