Some young guy - have you ever heard of a company called Secunia? If not, Google it and subscribe. It may open your eyes as well as your source, to find that I guess 90% of Advisories are concerned with Linux in all its forms. The vulnerabilities are frightening, to say the least.

No, I don't use IE, nor OE any more. I use Firefox and Thunderbird instead - Windows versions. Very few advisories come my way, and those that do are usually easily sorted.

Regards, MOTS :-)
