Penn State Tells 80,000 Students To Chuck IE
Thread Description:
Penn State University on Wednesday issued an alert to students and staff recommending that they dump IE and use a different browser.
The university's Information Technology Services (ITS) gave the advice "because the threats are real and alternatives exist to mitigate Web browser vulnerabilities," ITS said in a statement. It cited the security problems in IE that have been the focus of both media reports and recommendations from such organizations as the US-CERT, the federally-funded computer response team housed at Carnegie Mellon University.
Hooray!

I just dumped FF and when back to IE
IE still rocks in my world. I have been using FF since 0.6 for testing web sites to make sure they work ok with FF. I decided to convert over on my last fresh install of win xp pro. It lasted a week and I found my self running both of them, and then about another week and I was back to 15 copies of IE up and running. I like the tabs but FF is to slow. Ya I know people will think I am crazy but hey I like IE.
