Get Google Chrome Before....

That's it ... I'm turning off my innerwebs :eek:

I stapled my room walls, floor, and walls with tin foil ... no nobody can get in ... not even EMP ... as it I now live in a Tesla Faraday box: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6tKoYV7b24

thank god for firefox :D it dont have half the issues of IE and still better than chrome if i ever get hacked here at home then they are too good for any home use system to beat them away as have my own home network with no wifi and only one door in which hase the best watchdogs at the door and a shotgun to back them up as well as a maze to negotiate before you can even see the network.

I seem to recall that Chrome sandboxes things like Flash whilst Firefox gives it's plugins the same system access as it has itself so basically for somethings chrome is safer but I still prefer Firefox with no script and no adobe plugins. Most Malware these days comes from visiting infected web sites and loading something into the browser. Running Microsoft updates is the best basic protection and using a standard account rather than an admin account to browse the web is sensible.

Hackers et al target the masses. I stay away from IE, Chrome and Firefox, being the most popular and widely used.
Can't stand classical music, but it's Opera for me.

Unfortunately even Opera has its problems, autoupdateing with malware hasn't happened to the big four yet.

I read this myself when I used to subscribe to the Sophos newsletter. Pretty scary stuff if malware creators can spoof certificates. I would think using an actual MDS hash on the files would be more secure. Speaking of certificates, I recently completed a Microsoft JumpStart (cuz I can) on PowerShell 3.0. Any PowerShell script that needs to be shared, has to be allowed and has to have a certificate. If anyone alters the certificate for the script, which is placed at the bottom of the script file, it will not execute because the script interpreter detects the altered file and contents.
