Erm.. Doesn't MS still have a half patched hole?
Along with other unpatched holes, ranging from moderate to extremely critical, that have been unpatched for OVER A YEAR????

this isn't even about the marketshare, or any other lame argument that always gets presented, its about the sheer number of unpatched flaws in IE that go for months or years... and then M$ fanboys come out saying that they have a "good" history of resolving this in a timely manner??

look, if these kids in other countries that spend so much of their time breaking IE can find these exploits, why can't M$ find developers that can do that? Why does it take M$ weeks, if not months to "rush out" a patch? Why does M$ have to patch their patches???

I don't personally use FF, so don't go running off bashing me for being a firefox fangirl. At least take the time out of your oh-so-busy alternatives bashing to find out a few simple facts that rip your little theory to shreds.
