I agree about Explorer. Could you provide the names of the various governments that are warning against its use? This would help give validity to my words of caution. ------------------------------ On Mar 18, 2005 jeremy hunsinger wrote:
I'd strongly advise that people stop using explorer, various national governments have advised against using it. and stopped using it because of the huge number of security holes it provides. One of the best strategies for information security is to avoid information monocultures, and internet explorer seems to provide one of most convincing case in points of this, because its basic core functionality is tied into the o.s. itself, and thus its security problems are the whole computers problem, whereas taking a browser like firefox, opera, safari, etc. is far more safer because it is not a core part of the o.s. and if it has an exploit, it is far less likely directly affect the o.s..
