And I quote from the New Scientist article:

"The Firefox browser, which was released in November 2004 and is written by a loose-knit community of volunteers, has grown in popularity in recent months, partly because of several highly publicised flaws in the Microsoft browser."

Now, just how much can we trust this "loose-knit community of volunteers..." What if they're working for UBL? Or maybe are the bad sort of hackers, themselves. I think I'll stick with what I've got for now, and just try to back up more often... As long as there are people who like to hurt other folks, as long as there are people who are inherently evil, like those who aspire to damage another person's computer and possibly their livelihood, then good folks will get hurt. Makes it even more important to increase the fines and term of imprisonment for those who are apprehended for these crimes. Much higher fines and much longer imprisonment would take a lot of the glitz and glamor out of it for these jerks..

There's an article in this month's edition of Wired Magazine about FoxFire. Good article. Talks about public domain software in general. Basically a communist-type approach to getting a product out the door. Open-software is what they call it. It does help to teach people how to write code, because they can see what's already been done - the code is non proprietary, unlike that which has been developed for sale. And it always builds some level of teamwork, as evidenced in the case of FoxFire. But only a few people get reward either financially or with fame - like the authors of FoxFire. With those few, they are reaping the benefits of capitalism, while proclaiming the benefits of socialism.. Yes, it may turn out to be a great browser, but how I see it is as a competetor to IE, and competition in a free marketplace always leads to better products for consumers. So, in that regard Foxfire is good for the consumers. But, the only thing I found in the article that addressed security was the statement that FoxFire would be more secure, initially, because fewer people used it - currently about 4% of the browser market. Actually, that's probably a good point. Fewer people use Macintoshes, and thus those platforms are less valuable as a target for bad hackers. So, until FoxFire commands a large percentage of the market, it would be less valuable as a tarket for the bad guys, too. But where's the incentive to keep it that way. At least with IE, they have a lot to lose. I may try FoxFire. Then again, I may just stick with my current browser - to remain unnamed in this public forum.. 8-)
