With the release of Firefox 3, Mozilla hoped to make Firefox 3 safer than other Firefox previous browsers. But for those who still have Firefox 2, Mozilla release an update that would fix several security flaws. Flock, a social browser built on Mozilla code just releases Flock 1.2.3. Flock 1.2.2 fixed Mozilla 2 flaws. Internet explorer has also included antimalware protection in its upcoming IE 8 beta 2. Firefox 3 already has the antimalware protection. As of today, Safari which is known for its low RAM usage hasn’t included the antimalware protection in the browser. Apple would probably include this in Safari in the future, if it wants to participate in the browser’s war.
Browsers will always be vulnerable to attack. The coders just have to keep up with the attackers because I doubt if the coders want to trade security for accessibility. For instance, I know activeX can be used to attack IE. But if you disable active on IE, you would not be able to view some videos on some sites which you like. The only way to prevent an attack on the browser is to update the browser when a security patch is issued out.
