DigeratiPrime Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 so there is no spyware that exploits a wekaness in Firefox, but there might be in the future. ok, this sounds only like 'FUD'.Even if spyware appeared I doubt it could ever reach the magnitude of tourture that IE was/is.

FthrJACK Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 They will target whatever is popular, this is just proof of Firefox's continued success. spammers, telemarketers, and spyware propagators = like flies around brown stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 Thank God, I'm using firefox.So I don't have to worry.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>God didn't make the choice you made, you did. So thank yourself. Someday Firefox and Opera users may have to beware of spyware. But hopefully while 89% of the market share is dominated by IE to continue attracting malicious coding morons, Firefox and Opera will have the opportunity to increase their security measures as to be 3 or 5 steps ahead of spyware.I have 0 spyware, 0 viruses, very few ads, and 0 pop-ups. I'm satisfied with my browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
