Also from the bottom of this page:
"There is one caveat: Symantec counts only those security flaws that
have been confirmed by the vendor. According to security monitoring
company Secunia, there are 19 security issues that Microsoft still has
to deal with for Internet Explorer, while there are only three for Firefox."
So everything remains as before, and if MS Vista and IE7 end up being
the new Me <groan> then maybe the switch will be to Opera www.opera.com ?

Title: New Security Features in IE 7.0
Summary: The browser security wars have been heating up again
lately. After a small but significant exodus in which many
computer users switched from Internet Explorer to Mozillas
FireFox because of its supposed security advantages, last month
a report from Symantec:
http://news.com.com/Symantec+Mozilla+browsers+more+vulnerable+than+IE/2100-1002_3-5873273.html
shocked many open source fans with data showing the
Mozilla browsers suffered from more security vulnerabilities
than IE, including more that were of high severity.
