If you use Internet Explorer, read this now

The "zero-day" vulnerability, which came to light last week, allows criminals to take over victims' machines simply by steering them to infected Web sites; users don't have to download anything for their computers to get infected, which makes the flaw in Internet Explorer's programming code so dangerous. Internet Explorer is the world's most widely used Web browser.

While the exploits and patches for Microsoft patches have been reduced greatly over the past year or two, there are still way too many.

This is why I use Firefox, and to some extent Chrome.

Don't use IE!
