Security is in the center of this debate, accompanied by features and usability. This article will focus on the security aspects, particularly the risks involved with running any web browser and how to overcome some of these security shortcomings. I will use Internet Explorer and Firefox as examples, as these are the most commonly used, and therefore the most commonly exploited. That's good news for all you Safari and Opera users. Congratulations to the Safari and Opera development teams, because according to Secunia you have zero unpatched vulnerabilities (See Opera Vulnerability Report http://secunia.com/product/1543/ and Safari Vulnerability Report http://secunia.com/product/761/).
