How about a better browser? Netscape, Mozilla and Opera also have reported vulnerabilities and patches, but their developers don't practice the same level of obfuscation with regards to vulnerabilities of testing of their 'patch' code. Microsoft appears to be taking their 'black box' (or, 'closed source') practices to an extreme. Perhaps a little accountability might be in order (monetary awards for business and personal damages)?
