I hadn’t realised quite how bad Internet Explorer was.
…MSIE was 98% unsafe. There were only 7 days in 2004 without an unpatched publicly disclosed security hole.
Firefox was 15% unsafe. There were 56 days with an unpatched publicly disclosed security hole. 30 of those days were a Mac hole that only affected Mac users. Windows Firefox was 7% unsafe.
Via The Devil’s Kitchen, who has other reasons why you should dump IE as well.
I’ve been using Firefox for ages. There isn’t much reason why you shouldn’t.
On the plus side, the development stuff that’s filtering out about IE7 looks as though it’ll be a huge improvement. 🙂
