Not because the browser itself was not secure, but rather the plug ins people install. There are so many plug ins that firefox could not possibly account for all of their security holes.

I just found out about it today. It really is a great step in the right direction of blogging. Commentators now get rewarded for valueable input, and that encourages them to comment more frequently and also more on topic, not just a "thanks bye". KeywordLuv is great.

Not my words. One of my friend runs a logistics supplies store and he still uses zen cart. Several times we insisted him in using an updated cms for his e-commerce website, but he deliberately sticks on to zen cart. His claims are that its easy to add products and descriptions and moreover he says he is accustomed to using it and it will be difficult for him if he suddenly changes.
