Thread: Microsofts evil drop into Firefox.

The Microsoft engineers described the possible threat as a "browse-and-get-owned" situation that only requires attackers to lure Firefox users to a rigged Web site.

Sneaky Microsoft plug-in puts Firefox users at risk

Big shock.

"This update adds to Firefox one of the most dangerous vulnerabilities present in all versions of Internet Explorer: the ability for Web sites to easily and quietly install software on your PC,"

haha Windows gets owned again. Microsoft deliberately corrupting their competition I am shocked /rolleyes . Although this is a good way for Microsoft to get people to be more careful and drive people back to IE. Mozilla is still more secure than IE.

It is a good thing I use linux maybe they can install some software on my C:\ drive.

Just got a pop up from Firefox to disable the .net assistant.
