Well, IE 7 is intended to be more secure...

... so there's a market for Vista as a security upgrade still. What's the expression(?), Turning lemons into lemonade. Selling many glasses, and at much more than $0.05 a glass.

Microsoft had intended to eliminate any separate identity for the browser at all, but those plans were dropped. I think you're resisting the tide with your hope the browser be less integrated.

I think, though, you do have a good point. To the extent Microsoft relies upon perimeter security, the softwre will be less secure. The problem is, the vulnerabilities are sometimes also desireable features.

And Microsoft is not the company to make the mistake of reducing the number of reasons for people to buy its software.
