Er..

Firstly, there are plenty in firefox. I mean, there is NO SUCH thing as flawless software. Every peice of software contains flaws. If you dont beleive me, check neowin news, firefox admits to the flaws .

Secondly, It is highly doughtable that Bill Gates would pay Symantec to say that. A huge company like Microsoft could take a major hit from leading companys like Apple and Mozilla. Bill Gates could be arrested for that immediatly, a risk I gaurentee you he isnt willing to take for a simple Symantec security warning. Besides, it would just cause more damage to him as either of the companies will and DID respond to the security report by comparing the flaws in their software to that of Mirosofts software. Not to mention the majority of Apple and Firefox users are well..."enlightened" computer users and know better.

On another topic, Opera is planning a GUI overhaul Thats the one thing I dont like about opera, the UI just isnt plesent or welcoming to me. Perhaps Merlin will be more appealing?

Im going to be honest with you. I was a total firefox fan but I love opera its awesome without the ads!!!

[Im posting with it now btw]

i dont like it cause it has a crap password manager in it  an i aint paying for a web browser,

There were 22 security flaws found by by Secunia and Mozilla stated they were all valid. And there are many more security flaws in firefox, they just havent been discovered yet.

Dont get me wrong, my defualt browser is Mozilla Firefox and I strongly support Mozilla but to say that Symantec falsely accused firefox of having flaws is simply incorrect.

well we can both have our opinions yer?.. thats urs, an i'll have mine eh

Have you actually read this thread? Or even the title? "Opera is now... free", do you know what that means?

Opera I chose over firefox.  I hate firefox....

Love opera, but I like Maxthon better than both.
