Sorry Don, but I gotta disagree with you about it not being MS's fault.
If they'd made OE and IE secure in the first place there wouldn't be any exploits (yeah I know, over simplistic and ideolistic).
Eg. What bright spark at MS thought it'd be a good idea for OE to run scripts contained in an email? ..and has anyone actually used that feature legitimatly?
A while back I had problems doing a Windows Update, it couldn't connect to the server until I'd toned DOWN IE's security ..duh!
I'd be more interested in IE becoming standards compliant rather than added features 'inspired' by other browsers.
Also having IE not crash when it encounters a bad XML file would be nice..that one got me mad last week when a bug in one of my PHP scripts kept including illegal characters in an XML file :pissed:
