General News

I just came across this article about Internet Explorer and it's continuing track record with security holes:

Time to Dump Internet Explorer

Good line:

You know, fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me. Who's shamed when it's "fool me the 432nd time"? Who's the fool?

It contains good points - almost every spyware problem, with the exception of people installing P2P software, can be solved by getting rid of Internet Explorer. Scary thought, considering how integrated IE is with Windows.

The FireFox browser is becoming so great now that the need for IE at all is becoming less and less.

With all these stupid (and annoying) security holes in IE its even more of a good time to help promote the alternatives that are a) free and b) work!

Everybody - just go get the excellent FireFox web browser from here!!

Just think how hated FireFox would be if more than a handful of people started using it.
