About 44 percent of the 3,100 exploits tracked by the researchers attacked the open-source browser where only 15 percent of them would work in Internet Explorer. Safari is notably much closer to Firefox in vulnerability as 35 percent of explo... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/11/11/study.says.firefox.44.of.web.exploits/ Wed, 11 Nov 2009 20:50:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/11/01/windows.share.drops.in.oct.despite.win.7/ <img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/0910/windows7ultimate-photo.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />The launch of Windows 7 in October did nothing to stop an increase in Mac share online, the latest data from Net Applications shows. Although the Microsoft OS was on sale for nine days last month, Windows' combined share of Internet traffic actually dropped to 92.52 percent while Mac OS X profited directly, reaching a new high of 5.27 percent. Windows 7 did gain share and represents 2.15 percent... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/11/01/windows.share.drops.in.oct.despite.win.7/ Sun, 01 Nov 2009 22:45:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/10/28/cuts.off.theoretical.attacks/ <img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/gallery/sep2009/firefox3.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Mozilla has released Firefox 3.5.4, a minor but still significant update to its multi-platform web browser.

Users should soon be presented with a special browser ballot, explaining what web browsers are, and more crucially offering a choice of apps beyond Internet Explorer. The feature comes as a result of pressure from the European Commission, which has accused Microsoft of hampering competit... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/10/16/draws.fire.from.mozilla.designer/ Fri, 16 Oct 2009 17:00:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/10/01/netapplications.shows.mac.firefox.gains/ <img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/0909/snowleopard-reviewsm.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />More than a sixth of all Macs are already running Mac OS X Snow Leopard in just over a month of use, new findings from NetApplications show.
