OFFICIAL - Anything but MSIE FTW

[AboveTheSalt]

There is no doubt that Windows and MSIE are always going to be a more attractive target for anyone trying to develop an "exploit". As you say, they totally dominate the market and are likely to be the software used by any "naive" user who doesn't care about any claimed refinements in OSX, Linux, Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc.

As to MSIE being pants - 99% of browser users neither know nor care whether it is or not; it is available by default on the majority of new systems, broadly speaking it does what people want a browser to do and there is most chance that it will work with any web-site they visit.
