I think what is basically missing here is the fact that MS *does* fix
security flaws in IE.

SP2 gave the XP version of IE better security features
E.g. from

will soon be available to Windows 2000, Windows NT, or Windows 9x
platforms, I have bad news. It's not going to happen. You need to be
running XP to get the latest IE security updates. "
