Firefox Users Surf Safer
bring it on bitch Wink

Don't use Google toolbar

"We can't say whether Firefox is a safer browser or not," said Henry Levy, one of the two University of Washington professors who, along with a pair of graduate students, created Web crawlers to scour the Internet for spyware in several 2005 forays. "But we can say that users will have a safer experience [surfing] with Firefox."


You need to learn how to read ass. Purely subjective evaluation. Means shit. especially from a University that sucks.
They also used unpatched versions of each browser. Duh.

Don't even try to tell me, out of the box Firefox was secure, they looked at the attacks on IE and tried to make Firefox not fall in the same way.

I sent that article writer a few screenshots I was saving for here, but instead I sent them to that biased PoS article.

No F_cking duh! What a totally dumb article. Pure Firefox rant. Firefox is a decent browser but to write an article saying Firefox is more secure.. Pfff only a FOOL would smile after reading it.
