From CNet:

Microsoft on Friday released a fix that's designed to protect computers from one of three flaws that, together, could be used to digitally slip past a PC's security through the browser. This weekend, however, a security researcher identified another flaw that could serve the same purpose and that isn't fixed by Microsoft's patch. [...] Microsoft acknowledged the latest issue and said more fixes would be forthcoming.

I've had it.  I really have.  I'm normally one to defend Microsoft to the bitter end, if for no other reason than having a good argument, but I give up.  The problem is, I can't find a better browser to use.

STOP.  Stop right there.  I've been using MyIE2 for quite some time, complete with tabbed browsing, mouse gestures, ad blocker, etc, etc.  Don't you say FireFox... I've tried it, more than once - I tried to force myself to use it earlier this month after the last security hole was found... but I can't.

There aren't any major functionality problems; it's the little things.  Tiny pieces that aren't quite right, mostly having to do with not enough options being exposed in the UI.  No, about:config doesn't count... that's horribly lame... entirely too much hunting for an option that may or may not be on that giant list.

Sooooo, what are the alternatives?  Opera?  Netscape?  Jimmy's Neat-o Browser 5000?  I don't want to run a beta; I don't want to have to spend longer than 30 seconds to find an option and change it, and I can't at this point give up the tabbed browsing and gestures.  Am I asking too much?

Sigh.
