The latest bug around

Well, after all the money spent on SP2 you have to wonder while IE is really worth it.

Wow that's a serious one. Can't believe they didn't fix that. I only use IE for sites that just don't work in firefox and I try to avoid IE and windows in general as much as I can

http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ maybe here Click other systems/languages under download (for me default is linux i686 but I don't know if that switches if you run a different OS) Then you can select your download.

It does switch - I think it reads your browser version string, and so it suggests the OS and Langugae you're browsing in.
And Service Pack 2 is free, except for the huge download and the problems if you install it at the wrong time...

EDIT: The Secunia Article on this exploit. They only rate it as "moderately critical", presumably because you need Hide Extensions for Known File Types on for it to work. IE's full Secunia vulnerability report is "Extremely Critical", because of the IFRAME buffer overflow attack (which has a working exploit has been published on public mailing lists.), which Secunia can only recommend to "Use another product".

If there is one thing I will never use in firefox it'll be the tabbed browsing. I really hate that, but apart from that Firefox is definately better then IE
