Story: Symantec: Mozilla browsers more vulnerable than IE

It's about time security firms make people aware of this. Hackers will hit the most popular software, and as Firefox grows in popularity, it will be targeted.
The fact that early reviewers advocated switching to Firefox because it was more secure -- Walter Mossberg at the Wall Street Journal is a visible example -- demonstrates how ignorant the public is about software security.
Diebold's voting machines, the same ones used in the 2004 elections, had exploitable flaws that were even recognized by U.S. Homeland Security. http://www.us-cert.gov/cas/bulletins/SB04-252.html#diebold
Rather than bashing Microsoft at every turn, fun as it may be, the security and open-source communities must increase their vigilance as new software gains in popularity.
