This thing can only get in if you OK the install

Nothing is absolutely secure. Mozilla was safe for awhile because no one cared about it. Now that it's gaining popularity and momentum, more and more attacks and flaws will be found.
One day, we will die, when it comes...... i dunno, i'm not psychic!
Well if Firefox workss the way it is supposed to then the damage won't be nearly as bad as if it were on Internet Explorer because Firefox isn't as close to Windows as Firefox is but that is still very intresting. I my self use Firefox and I think that there is much of a diffrence between it and IE.

This is similiar to the fact that the Mac OS is now experiencing viruses targeting it. Simply put, it's getting popular as mentioned.
The fact that FF doesnt use Active X will always make it more secure than IE regardless..
