Re: CNET: IBM names Firefox its default browser
I certainly hope so, Steve. I got soo tired of removing the Backdoor Graybird virus from IE in my registry and watching it being installed promiscuously, albeit the windows were in Chinese, on YouTube. Never had another problem after switching to FF and installing Kaspersky Anti-virus. Not even a single pop-up. Much better than Norton or Mcaffee Btw: The Chinese claim they already have bot nets large enough to take over the USA. Maybe toymachines, but mainframes, never.
