ya, of course you never heard of Pwn2Own, you don;t pay any attention to software security news...

Also, while the issue discovered at P2O was patched in last minute into IE9, there are tons of exploits in IE9!

And according to this site I'm anti-Sony, anti-Microsoft, anti-gaming, anti-whatever you make up at the time, and anti-something that makes no sense. WTF, quit accusing me of shit!!! And who cares if I'm anti company, if I like a product I'll still buy it even if I hate the company attached to it. 


Firstly I havent heard of them.

And according to me you try to start #%!^ just for the damn sake of it. Like this. I will ask you again did you read my link?

nope, but here http://www.hackersbay.in/2011/04/ie9-exploit-puts-windows-7-sp1-at-risk.html

IE9 is a vast improvement over all previous, but it still causes massive issues.

I'll stick with FireFox Nightlies.

All i saw in your link is that it was better than chrome at stopping malware-only one facet of security.

Ya, i looked at the link. Kind of useless.

And the idea that IE9 is better is crap since Chrome's sandbox design makes it the most secure browser, followed by FireFox, Opera, IE, and Safari in this order.

Yeah that's why Internet Explorer has so many security loop holes.

Computer says no

That IE 9 be a lot better than the previous version is a good thing (and one everybody could legitimately expect), but its release versions are less than two months old, ranking high or best in some tests is a good thing too, but it's a little bit early to declare it a winner. Particularly considering that through decennia of security disasters, MS regularly declared each new version of its most pierced products finally secure (even Windows 2000, probably one of the best MS OS' ever needed 4 service packs before finally becoming stable and secure enough). Moreover IE 9 runs only on Vista and successive Windows versions, this leaves more than 1 billion users with the utterly crappy previous versions of the browser. In any case, MS' choice to link IE so closely to Windows will always be a potential source of bigger troubles in case of security breaches.

I hear Xbox Live is so secure not even Microsoft employees know how it works.



Tease.

Just like Windows, Office and IE! They should patent this protocol, it's light years ahead!
