What does it matter how many vulnerabilities have each of the programs?
You should remember that MSIE is close source and Mozilla is open, so there are no just accidental bugs, but bugs that can be found by reading the code (unlike MSIE).
The point, for me at least, is that Mozilla has another mothel of production, which is to adress security concerns as fast as possible. And if they found that number of vulnerabilities in that period on mozilla, being an open-source program, I would congratulate Mozilla. For me, Mozilla will be, for that reason my first choice for a browser.
Think whatever you like. By the way, your reality is necessarily other's reality. You're blinded by you misconceptions.
That's all, reply if you wan't I don't even care.
I couldn't feel any more disgusted by all the posts I read... 99% of them were advices from stupid conservative people. I can't say I'm disappointed, I've realized a long time ago there are a lot of ignorant persons in the world. Don't you know that being so narrow minded promotes conservative ideologies like racism and most forms of discrimination? Seems not...
And why does everyone feels that should give advices?
Poeople will never stop amazing me. I've read in one post something like: "you shouldn't care about how you look, but about how you work" (trying to say that body mods are stupid). Don't you realize that you're contradicting yourself? Correct, you SHOULD care about how you work, and noone should care about how you look... not event employers.
In my case, I have 4 piercings and I wouldn't ever consider taking them out just to get a job. At most I would take them out if I really need the job or if I consider it necessary.
I would really like to answer every damn post this story got, but I really don't want to waste my time on other meaningless people's thoughts.
You all are a bunch of ignorant conservative right-minded bush-lovers...
Erm... April's fools or what?

Mmmhmm.. April 27th... no 1st... something is wrong...
Why is more important the announcement than the actual data?
Why make such a fuzz about it when they don't have any proofs?
They should hold the announcement until they can provide people the two blocks of data that share the SHA1 sum.
Hey, I've read some posts that said that Exeem prohibited the dissasemble or reverse-ingeneering.
I'm not protecting Exeem, I'm just saying that I'd be careful about publishing this info.
Well... after all I'm just a(nother) paranoid
I have ClamAV installed and I checked in the virus list (sigtool --list | grep -i mydoom) and I can't see anything resembling this one. I know ClamAV may have different naming conventions.
Does anyone know if clamav's virus definitions get updated fast enough?
I was thinking in posting this story because the team of researchers were formed by 3 argentinians (I live there) and "study co-author Dr. Sunil K. Ahuja". This isn't mentioned anywhere in the article. In fact, an announcement was made in a local Hospital ("Garrahan") here and presented by different media as a discovery made by this groups of argentinians collaborating with Ahuja.
I would really like this post updated with this important info.
Links to the local story (in spanish):
Clarin newspaper
The names of the three argentinian investigators: "Andrea Mangano, Luisa Sen y Rosa Bologna".
Reminds me of a joke:
"- Why did a mathematician travelled on an airplane carring two bombs?"
- Because he knew the odds of ONE bomb being on board a plane was really small."
Measuring in % is just a way to get a more readable number (people tend to like "round" numbers like 10 and 100). A probability can be easily expressed as a percentage. It's just a matter of scale.
But, well... probability tends to be defined as fraction between 0 and 1.
Yeah, first post... What's that anything to do with this?
If you dig up some info, you'll see that it's the first asteroid that reached 4 in the Torino Scale. Even more, no other asteroid has ever reached higher than 1 in the Torino Scale.

erm... "model" possible other horrible grammatical mistakes

So you're gonna pull that "I'm older smarter and succesfull, so that make's me right?" Pathetic, you're one more in the heap...

OH! And I take my private key in my USB memory keychain (to my SSHd running at home, only using private-key for authentication).
I wear a tin-foil hat.

Oh... I missed that link... Well, the fault is on Wired then for not saying anything about the complete team.

I know, sorry... English isn't my first language.

a) I know the difference. It was a typo b) My first language is not english. A typo doesn't make me illiterate. c) Where did I say it was an advice?
