Any browser with full functionality enabled by default is vulnerable since many
vectors are now the plugins/helpers like Flash & Java.
1st rule of firewalls is DENY all and selectively enable what you need, same should
be true of browsers!

Thane,
Thanks for this. Another black star for IE7!
Perhaps why IE8 is soon to appear???? LOL!
Heh heh. Anyone using IE7 over FF3 is crazy, in my experience. IE7 is
a vulnerable to almost every every attack out there, has a clunky
interface out of the box - the only upside to it is that it loads
quickly because half of it loads when Windows starts.
It may be time for MS to exit the browser arena, seeing as FF and Chrome
seem to be battling for the championship.
