Of course the Firefox and Apple apologists will come out in force on this. When IE was consistantly the least secure browser NOBODY question the data. BUt now that FF and Apple topthe list, of course the data is false, misleading, and the result of shady security companies. The facts are this: Criminals will exploit anything. So it only makes sense that as FF and Safari usage grows so will the number of cyber criminals that target them.

It made sense to me. Vulnerable doesn't mean it's the least secure.

These security firms are shady, they expose leaks and then ask the companies to hire them to fix them. MY questions: Were they really leaks in the first place, or were they just simply hacked?

All the document contains are a list of percentages with no explanation of what they consider a vulnerability. Are extensions included for instance?

It's better to go to their security center rather than enlist the help of this scammer like company.

"which means that although Firefox had the most vulnerabilities reported, that doesn’t actually mean its the least secure browser". If that's true, then why the title of "Firefox Now The Most Vulnerable Browser?" Comeon guys, how about learning to come up with titles like real reporters?
