However, as MCBastos points out, M$ is a big believer in secrecy and the long-ago discredited model of *security thru obscurity*.
...and notice that these "analyses" never bother to mention the SEVERITY of the bugs in question nor the time-to-patch[1]. M$ Patch Tuesday[2] ring a bell? ...and surely you've hear about M$ vulnerabilities that go months and years unpatched? >:[...]Microsoft (my full-time employer) > Your FUD detector needs an overhaul. . . [1] ...and as MCBastos points out, many of these other-vendor "bugs" have *already* been patched but are **still counted** while many of the M$ bugs go unpatched. ...and time-to-patch for most SERIOUS Open Source browser bugs is typically less than 1 day. [2] Having an exploit against M$'s junk released into the wild on the second Wednesday of the month means that even if M$ writes a patch for that immediately, the soonest YOU can get that fix is still 4 week away. Seriously, does that sound like "security" to you? _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
