Story: Firefox's New Year resolution: Keep growing

I'm not sure that I understand the first post. I use Firefox, Opera, Amaya and I/E (where I have to) as browsers and use McAfee Security Center as my A/V and Firewall protection - McAfee works perfectly well with all of them? The only thing I've noticed is that McAfee A/V and Firewall updates seem to connect faster through Firefox than they did via I/E. The protection levels offered are exactly the same for all of the browsers (just as it is for the Thunderbird mail client and Outlook, O/E, Operamail etc.).
I presume the comment is related to updating A/V definitions for McAfee - this is easily resolved, within FF, by setting McAfee as a trusted download site - the opposite of I/E, where everything is trusted unless excluded - this represents a security enhancement as far as I'm concerned!.

I wonder, who needs .asia domain? I cannot imagine, what would be useful for Microsoft.asia? Toyota.asia? Then let's register .europe (if .eu is too short). Or perhaps Microsoft.southamerica, Dell.australiaandnewzealand, Coca-Cola.africa... Sound funny? Then why not just use the global and country domains? Or perhaps it is time to drop the domains at all?
