There has been a lot of buzz in the media these past couple of days about a serious security flaw in Microsoft IE. I don’t use IE anyway and haven’t done for two or three years (wouldn’t touch it with a barge pole!).
This is not the first time this has happened with IE. Back in 2005 there was another security flaw in Microsoft’s browser version IE6 – I wonder how many times it has to happen before people get the message that hackers will always try to infiltrate widely used programs, like IE. This problem is not applicable to the beautiful and very fast Firefox (the Bomb of all Browsers – read the above article on how to customise it to act like IE with certain websites including Active X controls) or Chrome, Opera, Safari etc.
I would suggest get out there and download one of the alternative browsers, give it a good go for a week and I’m confident you will never want to go back to the ‘dark side’ of MS IE. I’m quite sure you can import your bookmarks from IE too. No excuses folks – protect your personal information and say ‘no’ to IE!
