Microsoft IE was reported with a major security flaw during the last 2-3 days . This vulnerability could be used by the hackers to get very sensitive user information such as banking passwords and credit card data . Experts were advising the internet explorer users to switch on to another browser till there’s a suitable fix . IE security flaw patch is assumed to be a fix for about 2 million computers running Windows OS.
I am always a supporter of open source browser movement and personally using Firefox and Google chrome . At the same time i know that many are still using Internet explorer (about 60%) ,and this could be the best indication for the depth of this vulnerability . Though the studies says that market share of FF and Chrome are increasing , for many colleges , companies and internet cafes ,browser means its Internet explorer .Even now ,they may not be aware of this major security flaw in IE . Anyways this download would be an easy fix for all IE fans out there .
