“I don’t use IE7 — still use IE6. I wonder if the patch is applicable or needed for IE6? Anyone know?”
I think that they said that all are vulnerable, I already downloaded the patch so I switched back to IE from firefox.

I've been using this because I don't have admin rights on my laptop. Works pretty well.

I use Chrome on my Windows box, hopefully they’ll have a Linux version soon.

That would be cool. Is Linux more secure than Windoze?

I think Microsoft is the flaw. Always has been ... always will be.

So far I’d have to say yes. But it could just be that Windows is just targeted more. If Linux had a larger market share, would hackers start turning their attention more to Linux attacks, I don’t know.

I didn’t realize people still used IE. Everyone I know uses Firefox.

Only liberals use IE..........

I had a whole bunch of problems going from FF 3.0.3 to 3.0.4. Lost my bookmarks, history, etc. Streaming radio stations don’t work anymore. I had problems with T-Bird, too. Don’t know how T-Bird and FF3 are connected is beyond me. It all happened immediately after the upgrade.

I agree. Once all the kids are out of school (since the schools have both the hype of Microsoft) ... I’m moving to Linux.
