Posted on | April 9, 2008 | 3 comments
My story today on other security tools home PC users can avail themselves of highlights the malware detector in book signing event at RSA. Firefox 3. Mozilla security chief Window Snyder was among the 200 or so guests who showed up at our Snyder engaged White Hat Security co-founder
Firefox 3 won’t be a cure all. But it will be another layer of protection. And it should be available for wide public use by mid-year. Meanwhile, Microsoft just released the developer’s beta of Internet Explorer 8, and has not yet said whether IE 8 will include something similar.

You were on Gary Null this week explaining firefox. I got the end of the explaination. I am a senior citizen and would like my computer protected. I get confused with all the malware, adware etc. You said firefox was free. What is it anyway in the way to protect my computer.
Thanks for any info you can give me.

Internet Explorer 8 seems to be better than any previous version of IE. IE8 is very stable and rarely crashes or cause blue screens.

Internet Explorer 8 is very good because it is as stable as Opera. I hate the previous versions of IE like IE6 because it hangs frequently. ‘
