Well now I just read this...

So I'm going on Firefox until Microsoft comes out with a fix.

You know what? I think I'm going to start playing the lottery..maybe I'll win and retire and never have to use Microsoft again!!

I'm still trying to wind the lottery and retire but I've been free of Microsoft for many years.

The numbers I would use, which are just birthdays have come up in the PA lottery pick three and pick four at least three times the past six months. I watch Jeopardy at 7pm and the lottery comes on just before that so I almost always see it. But people have always told me that playing the lottery is a mugs game and its better to just save my money, so I never play. Maybe I would be rich by now...although I probably would have had to share my winnings with a million other players. LOL

Regarding browsers I've been MS free too, I still use Windows XP though, it still is one of the things or the only thing really good that MS has developed IMHO. I'm anxiously waiting for the final Windows 7 version, I heard the Beta version is great and stable, way better than Vista.

What isn't in dispute is that IE 7 on Vista is not vulnerable,

and as IE8 is more secure then IE& that is really a non issue
