What is your favourite web browser ?

Just search google for "Firefox Security loopholes" "Firefox security exploits" "Firefox Security holes" and such there is FAR more on there than I could possibly type all night

Some of the exploits from over 5 months ago are still not patched up which is what worries me more than them being there in the first place.

Thanks for your reply, Zaff.

I don't really lend much credence to the number of Google hits on any given subject, but just for a test I searched for the terms you gave, and then searched, this time substituting "internet explorer" for "firefox" and there were more results - about double - for "internet explorer"

If you have specialist insight into this topic i'd be very interested to hear what you've got to say. Otherwise, i'll just continue to trust what seems to be the general consensus among tech sites on the net regarding Firefox vs IE, my friends who work in computer security, and my own experience.

a51ts4 it's interesting to hear a very different point of view. Why did you switch/what are the benefits of Maxthon? Do you also perceive weaknesses in IE and FF?
