A Quote from Jay-Z

“My secret to success is telling the truth and not holding back on what others think I shouldn’t say or rap about.”

To me, this kind of applies to a security researchers world. As a vendor will tell them not to tell the public about how much their product sucks, and how many flaws do actually exist until the feel the need to patch them.

My Firefox vs. Internet Explorer Statistics

I have had a few people, and reporters ask me what browser is used most to hit my site?  Well believe it or not, Internet Explorer outnumbered Firefox by almost 10%.  This really surprises me because I thought more savvy people came to my site for information, but I guess thats not true.  Also I guess its worth mentioning that 92.55% are IE6, and  5.41% were IE7.  As for Firefox 22.71% were version 1.5.0.1, 10.76% version 1.0.7 and 4.27% were version 2.0.

Below are stats for the entire year of 2006.

So if you are using Internet Explorer, or any other browser I would suggest you install Firefox not only for security reasons but for an overall better Internet experience!  These stats were taken from Google Analytics.
