OK, but how do you tell a secure site from an insecure site? If a site turns out to be insecure, if the browser isn't vulnerable to the attacks that the insecure site can exploit, then the browser is "secure" for that insecure site. Assuming that, except for the short time between a security bug's discovery and its fix, all browsers are secure for known exploits, which browser is most likely to have the fewest unknown security bugs? Isn't that the same thing as asking which is the most secure browser? Other than reading local documentation, the "secure" browser would be used for visiting websites that I don't want to visit with a browser or from a box who's browser may have been compromised (unknowningly) from an insecure site. The example on a previous thread was doing internet banking. Is it wise to do one's banking from the same browser as one does general web surfing? Doug.
