According to representatives of CERT, the brainchild of Microsoft, which Now used by 95 percent of people with access to the Internet, allows Internet attackers to install on your computer Trojan user, keep an eye on what he's doing user, steal personal data and account information and send spam.

One of them, called Download.Ject, directed the user to the web resource from which the visitor’s computer was downloaded a program that tracked which keys were pressed user and sent spam. Another virus that also spread last week turned out to be more dangerous. The program infected the computer when opening an advertising window. Then when the user decideduse the online presence of any of the 50 the world's largest banks, the program transmitted to distributors information about which keys the owner pressed infected computer. According to CERT, Internet Explorer contains more than 30 errors that can be exploited by hackers and that and have not been fixed by Microsoft.

Hello, Wladimir! 06 Jul 04 21:17, Wladimir Bulchukey -> All: WB> Internet Explorer users urgently recommended WB> change browser Uh-huh. It's just unrealistic. In Opera, a lot of code is displayed inadequately. There are some problems in Mozilla with Java - on the pages there are "buttons" being processed They don't work in Java. I have all browsers... WB> Microsoft software developers believe that WB> users are actually stupid, and if in the final product So they are actually stupid, there is no need to assume ;) Those who understand have no problems with IE. Best regards, Evgeniy.

Press RESET immediately, Eugene Palenock! On Wed, 07 Jul 04 14:43:29 +0400, Eugene Palenock wrote: WB>> Internet Explorer users urgently recommended WB>> change browser EP> Yep. It's just unrealistic. In Opera, a lot of code is displayed inadequately. Maybe the code written by inadequate M$ victims is inadequate? That's half the Internet. So you have to understand that they write exclusively and purposefully under IE. They even take measures to make sure give a completely inadequate page to a sane browser -- cases are known. There's Microsoft's compensation to Opera-software, or whatever they call them, is still paying. Tests are available at W3C.ORG... EP> There are some problems in Mozilla with Java - on the pages there are "buttons" being processed EP> do not work in Java. Buttons are processed not in Java, but in JavaScript. It's nonsense that it doesn't are working. They're working for me. EP> I have all browsers... And I have one (Mozilla). No, of course I have Lynx, but this already different. And there is no need for 3 more different browsers. Feel the difference... WB>> Microsoft software developers believe that WB>> users are actually stupid, and if in the final product EP> So they are really stupid, there is no need to assume ;) EP> Those who understand have no problems with IE. Let's not talk about holes. It's not even a problem, it's just a fairy tale... And CSS2 (even opera can do it!), page formatting according to standards published by W3C, correct display of PNG - where is all this? Instead of this constantly pop-up windows with advertising, lack of bookmarks (tabs) - (open a few dozen windows - isn’t he feeling worse?) and a half-hour loading pictures. Not to mention ease of use - this In terms of M$, everything is always as usual. That is, it was not made for people. However, all this is Holy WAR... But about three observers at once this rightly noted. Before you judge something, you need to try it for at least a month more another reviewer. PS: show me in IE where the manager password is (I’m not able to remember all the passwords on a hundred sites!), download manager (and what I downloaded it there, I don’t remember either), popup manager (need advertising?), form manager (again - there are many sites and you have to enter everything manually everywhere very annoying), javascript console (debug your scripts) and DOM inspector (can be viewed as DOM or as JavaScript objects), sane (like in mozilla) bookmarking system, site navigation bar (a book for example - navigation through pages, sections...),and search on google (and so that there is a list in the sidebar on the left, and content on the right specific pages from the list of found ones). I want everything. And here, more I want an html editor. There's nothing...
