Internet Explorer Not Safe
Yes, coming from the mouth of mircosoft this time.
it appears that they are telling people to use a different browser, such as firefox or chrome, instead of the popular IE7, untill a security flaw was been fixed. it seems that some websites allow hackers to obtain passwords and codes to games, and possibly even bank details *deletes all recent form data this coming from microsoft brought to me by virgin media, bought to you by me Clarkii  Spreading an era of caution to those weary to IE7's charms http://latestnews.virginmedia.com/news/t...orer_users Thoughts? |

I've heard plenty of people say 'I use Internet Explorer' to the question of 'What's your ISP?' They have no clue what they're talking about! The key to life is sincerity.

RE: Internet Explorer Not Safe
Everyone knew it was unsafe and just rubbish I know from experience this wont make anyone change.
For example my mum uses Internet Explorer 7 even though she got ad ware the other day from it (Luckily N360 killed it  ) but she still uses it because Microsoft being cheeky have ignored the default browser when opening you mail via Windows Live Messenger so she's to lazy to double click MF and type hotmail.com !!!I do believe they have released a patch now though...
