			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At last, BBC News have removed that <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/5305250.stm">effusive story</a> about the <a href="http://web3.0log.org/2006/09/01/new-secure-browser-browzar-is-fake-and-full-of-adware/">highly dodgy Browzar software</a>. I almost complained to the BBC about it yesterday, but luckily I didn&#8217;t need to. Today they&#8217;ve replaced it with a new, <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/5310114.stm">much more probing story</a>.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s clear that Browzar is on the back foot now. I particularly like this bit:</p>
<blockquote><p>Mr Ahmed said at the time of its release: &#8220;Although it&#8217;s possible to delete history folders and empty cache with existing internet browsers, the majority of internet users worldwide don&#8217;t have the time or expertise to do this.</p></blockquote>
<p>It could hardly be simpler to delete history folders and empty your cache. In Firefox it a simple matter of going to Tools &#8594; Clear Private Data. And that&#8217;s it! As I recall, it is similarly easy to delete your history and cache even in Internet Explorer.</p>
<p>Yet Ajaz Ahmed thinks that people will find it easier to go out, download and install his scam IE shell? In a world where so many people still think that the only way to browse the web is through Internet Explorer? A friend recently said to me that he didn&#8217;t understand why he could need Firefox because &#8220;with Internet Explorer you just type in the address and that&#8217;s it.&#8221;</p>
<p>Every opportunity should be taken to warn people away from Internet Explorer, so I&#8217;ll do it right now.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=affiliates&#038;id=0&#038;t=50"><img border="0" alt="Get Firefox!" title="Get Firefox!" src="http://sfx-images.mozilla.org/affiliates/Banners/125x125/trust.png"/></a></p>
<p>Or at least <a href="http://browsehappy.com/">Browse Happy</a>.</p>
