The obvious implication is that all browsers are a buggy as IE and because micr$oft has filled more holes, it makes it the most secure. So the fact that since I started using Opera (Close to 2 years now!) I've had to perform one update due to a security issue, all the others have enhanced the functionality only, means nothing.

If this is true then I have to applaud the Opera staff for managing to fit as many bugs in to 3.2mb of code as Micro$ofrt fitted into the 50+mb that forms IE.



pmsl @ the last bit , the last time i had a look at firebird , it seemed a bit clunky to me , maybe i will try the latest version , firefox is it ????????? , and see what it is like now
