In the last month there have been many changes in the browser-world.
After the red alert of MSIE about all security holes and bugs in it and the respawn of the old good browse-war, in which other browsers have been re-discovered and like mystified, sometimes.
Facts are facts: IE has losed average 5% of presence after many years of a predominantly stable 95%, even when IE was cause of trials in which it was reckoned as a monopolizing activity.
In the meanwhile a new Gecko based browser (like Netscape and Mozilla) appeared as the new face of the Mozilla tech front-end: Firefox. With the alerts its version 0.8 increased its presence a 20% in a couple of months.
But...
In 5 weeks there have been 4 updates of Firefox where many security-related bugs (some even fosilized old Gecko-kernel ones) have been discovered and fixed: 0.9, 0.9.1, 0.9.2, 0.9.3...
Doesn't it look like as in Microsoft where any security bug is being patched?
Should we understand this since it is a (late) beta version?
PS: I would not like to turn this into a BrowseWars-Thread. This is completely about Firefox. Do not try to advertise other browsers with better features, less bugs or whatever. Just post what you think about Firefox' evolution and future
