August 28th, 2006 I think few graphs will clearly illustrate the gulf of difference between these two leading browsers (Internet Explorer 6.x & Firefox 1.x) in terms of security. Let's start with our favorite whipping boy,market leader Internet Explorer 6.x, shall we? Internet Explorer 6.x Security Advisories Source: Secunia Firefox 1.x Security Advisories Source: Secunia Now let's look at their criticality.

July 8th, 2005 After recent reports of several critical security vulnerabilities of PHP based software. I decided to take a closer look at the current state of security with PHP based products.

June 24th, 2008 These add-ons are so useful that I cannot work for a single day without them and so I would suspect most web developers and QA Engineers. These plugins / add-ons makes Firefox a formidable web development and testing platform.

May 5th, 2006 PHP 5.1.4 has been quitely released with a very important fix to $_POST array handling bug along with other fixes. In short in PHP 5.1.3 post array handling was broken which prevented several popular applications like phpmyadmin from running on 5.1.3.

March 27th, 2009 As its now official that Firefox has more bugs than IE, Safari and Chrome combined, we have more reasons to be worried about its stability while we are doing any web based work. Talk of dependence and there we have it on Firefox because others are just not upto it.

September 2nd, 2007 In Linux, unlike Windows, multiple users can simultaneously connect to the same machine and get a full GUI using windows managers like VNC. However when one of the account has Firefox opened, others are prevented from bringing up firefox which can be very much irritating.
