Zone-Spoofing Fixed for IE 7 Home Users
BeanBunny writes "The IE 7 dev team has essentially removed the intranet zone for Home users, resulting in a Web browser that is effectively invulnerable to a zone-spoofing attack. This security feature does not exist, however, on any installation that is part of a managed network. It also does not exist if you manually change the permissions on your Internet zone. However, in Windows Vista, both zones will be run in a 'protected mode,' something that allegedly prevents the invisible installation of code."
First!!!!
I may be wrong but you're downright ugly!
You're a tit!!!!
Listen, you clueless zealot: FF-extensions are in no way restricted
They are exactly as protected as ActiveX, which is to say: not at all.
Please get it into your head; I know you have been brainwashed by the professional Mozilla-bloggista, but at least try to get a hint of reality.
Thank you for you efforts.
Microsoft is coming out with another version of it's popular XP operating system that is the most secure OS to date claims Balmer "What we've done is limited the operating system from booting up at all! This leaves the computer nearly 100% safe from malicious attacks" Users will have to buy the Boot-Up(tm) upgrade in order to use their system which is available in both stand alone and upgrade packages.

Do you know why i dont use M$ Wintendo? because im tired of being screwed by M$.
In the past i caught huge amounts of spyware just surfing the web , without authorizing any website to install software or something like that , since i changed do Firefox never more had problems.
After almost 8 years double-clicking to install software , had annoying anti-vírus always saying that i should do a system check , defraging the hardrive etc... i was sick of it , and once someday windows again had a stability issue (this time couldnt shut down Nero) , I understand it was time to change , gnu/linux was the perfect answer(TM).
Besides my conscience doesnt let me use M$ Evilware(TM) anymore.
P.S. Yes i want IE and Wintendo to be insecure and unstable , but hey , im not worried about that , it is M$ speciallity (dont they have a patent on that?).
