    Firefox Password Manager vulnerability discovered

    "Today, Mozilla made public bug #360493, which exposes Firefox's Password Manager on many public sites. The flaw derives from Firefox's willingness to supply the username and password stored on one page on a domain to another page on a domain. For example, username/password input tags on a Myspace user's site will be unhelpfully propagated with the visitor's Myspace.com credentials. It was first discovered in the wild by Netcraft on Oct. 27. As this proof-of-concept illustrates, because the username/password fields need not be visible on the page, your password can be stolen in an almost completely transparent fashion. Stopgap solutions include avoiding using Password Manager and the Master Password Timeout Firefox extension, which will at least cause a prompt before the fields are filled. However, in the original case detailed in the bug report, the phish mimicked the login.myspace.com site almost perfectly, causing many users to believe they needed to log in. A description of this new type of attack, dubbed the Reverse Cross-Site Request (RCSR) vulnerability, is available from the bug's original author."

    Between IE7, Firefox, and Opera, they're all fine for web browsing. My personal favorite is Firefox because of extensions and themes.

    just started using IE7 this week... dati IE6 and FireFox gamit ko.
    kahit pirated yng windows ko (nag-fail sa windows genuine advantage check), na-install ko pa rin ng maayos (i know some secrets... hehehe :D)

    between IE7 and FireFox -- my vote goes to IE7. mas simple ang interface.
