Mozilla Firefox Most Vulnerable of 10 Most Vulnerable Softwares of 2008
The news about Mozilla Firefox being the most vulnerable software of 2008 (Top 10 list of most vulnerable softwares review by expert) is expected. Many Firefox users have complained about Firefox vulnerabilities claiming that they got their passwords stolen and that Firefox cannot protect them from phising sites or when allegedly, Facebook was phishing info from its users during the Koobface Virus Attack).
Personally, I love Firefox. That is on a personal level. What I love are the availability of plugins, addons and extensions that help me work better online either as a blogger or as web developer. However, I have encountered countless Firefox crashes before. Sometimes, Firefox even closes when my internet connection is not available. This, among other abnormal behaviors of Firefox made it to the Top of the list of 10 Most Vulnerable Softwares of 2008. I can only agree.

Adobe Update: Latest Adobe Flash Player Top New Features
I’ve just updated my Adobe Flash Player browser plugin and I’m seeing some very good changes to the latest adobe Flash Player version 10. The features are great and I can already open sites with flash embedded in them without problems. You too can see these changes if you have automatically updated your Adobe Flash Player plugin after you have been warned that a new update is available in IE 7 or IE 8 (Beta 2), Mozilla Firefox 3.x, and other web browsers. I’m not sure if the buggy Google Chrome, already supports the integration of Adobe flash player because I’m not using it.
The top new features of Adobe Flash Player are the following: Read more
Limbo Malware is on the Loose so Beware: Be Careful With Your Bank Account Information
Do you transact online and do online banking? If yes, then beware of Limbo malware. It’s a Trojan horse program that can hijack your account by injecting itself in web browsers and requests bank card numbers and PIN numbers from innocent or unknowing users.
According to IDG News Service, the malware known as Limbo “integrates itself into a Web browser using a technique called HTML injection, said Uri Rivner, head of new technologies at RSA Consumer Solutions. Because it’s so closely integrated in the browser, it can operate even while the user is at the real bank site and can actually change the layout of that site, he said.”
Google Chrome Update: Google Chrome is Buggy and Sucks Big Time
After testing the new Google Chrome web browser, I found out myself that it is too buggy for heavy use. The browser maybe new but the fact remains - it has too many bugs to be my default browser. First off, my websites don’t look good in Google Chrome and my blog posts are (WRITE NEW) acting weird. Text/word wrapping is lost.
Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2 Features: Will IE8 Beat IE7 in Security and Privacy?
The much-anticipated release of Internet Explorer 8 (IE) Beta 2 has finally come. Many eager internet users patiently waited for the release of IE8 Beta 2 because its predecessor, Internet Explorer 7 has faced so many controversies in the past in terms of privacy and security. At the moment, I am still inclined to use Firefox 2.0.014 because so far, I have not encountered a serious flaw in this version. With Internet Explorer 7, when my websites did not load properly the first time I used it, I have stopped using IE7 since then. I was not able to evaluate very well the performance of IE7 because of my immediate dismay. I hope IE8 Beta 2 will not replicate the same flaws in IE7.
Mozilla Firefox 3.1 (TraceMonkey) Release Promises Speed
The Mozilla Firefox 3.1 (dubbed as TraceMonkey) release promises faster loading of web pages. Unlike its predecessors, Firefox 3.0.1 and earlier versions, Firefox developers promise its users that this time around, Firefox 3.1 is a more stable release.
In addition to this, Computerworld stated in their website that Read more
Firefox 3.0.1 Errors and Crashes When Opening Web Pages With Flash Objects
In testing Firefox 3.0, I found errors and bugs in this release. This is the reason why the developers of Firefox updated the version to 3.0.1 about a week later. Firefox 3.0.1 is still buggy and bug fixes are still in order. In my observation, Firefox 3 commits errors and crashes whenever it opens web pages containing flash objects.

The New Search Engine Cuil: Will it Beat Google?
Cuil (pronounced as “cool”) is a new search engine that promises to index pages on the world wide web two to three times as much as Google does at present. For webmasters/bloggers, this might sound like a very good idea. If Cuil’s promise would be fulfilled, our sites would be indexed more effectively and presumably faster, thus, could increase traffic to our websites because if more pages are indexed, more internet users would be able to find our sites. Well, at least that’s our best hope. For internet users, this could also mean that they would find more articles about their keyword searches. On the other hand, how good can Cuil filter relevant articles and spam sites is up to now unknown because Cuil is still new in the business.
