Story: 2004: Internet Explorer's year of shame
Posted by: Anonymous (Saturday 10 July 2004, 7:14 AM)
You IE fanboys fail to note that Mozilla is not embedded into the operating system as IE is heavily integrated. If there are software flaws in Mozilla, it is pretty tame compared to the worse consequences posed by security holes in IE----because Microsoft wanted so badly to integrate its IE browser into the operating system.
Also, the Mozilla foundation cares so much about their product, they were able to come up with the software update within 24 hours. Compare this to Microsoft, who sat on their butts for several weeks before coming up with a patch.
Also, Mozilla is not to blame for the SHELL: security bug---Microsoft was supposed to have fixed this bug in their Windows Service Pack 1 update. Apparently, they have not fixed it, according to some sources. So, you have these Mozilla developers getting the bad rap, when it should have been Microsoft being blamed for this problem.
Mozilla all the way!!!
