As far as the article is concerned I don't really have an opinion but it does have some interesting points here and there.

Browsers don't make your PC unsafe, your browsing habits do.

I am guessing that this review is using FF3 vanilla. With addons you could easily say FF3 > Other browsers in terms of security.

Just by using safe browsing habits, I have yet to get a single piece of malware through any FF3 or Ie7 exploits. I have, however, gotten roughly 6 trojans over my Lan. My mom still uses Limewire, despite me saying no. Guess it's a good thing i run an AV anyways, no? :P

I have been using firefox for the longest time and I have never had any trouble with it. IE use to lag really bad for me whenever I started it back then so I have completely abandoned it ever since.
