The only reason so many vulnerabilities are being found in Firefox recently is due to its popularity. Its obvious that once a program becomes so widely used problems are more likely to be found. The developers can't anticipate everything that a user may do. Massive testing and usage simulation is done before a release but its impossible to get every variable factored in. I'm very impressed at Mozilla.org and the Firefox community for the work that they put into making Firefox an excellent product. I've been using this browser since the 0.5.X series and love every bit of it. It just keeps getting better. I can't wait for the next major release. Keep up the good job! btw, fuck Symantec.
