Default Germans Claim IE is unsafe.

Telegraph report that German Govt warns against using IE as it claims it has been hacked and is unsafe.

They suggest that Chrome is a more reliable choice. For more info Google "Germans claim IE security problems".

Lot of info there.

I've been using Mozilla Firefox for years, much better and more secure.

France has done the same!! IE has been unsafe since it's release years ago. It will always be unsafe. All browsers are unsafe - some have better security features but if the Hackers decided to target FireFox, Chrome (or any other) they'd have the same warning. IE is targetted because it is the most popular.

And they are only 'unsafe' because scum-bag hackers want something for nothing. In both the virtual and the real world we the consumer suffer and have added costs because scum bags want to take what is yours (e.g. car, mobile, bank details, ID).

Google has been hacked, Twitter, Facebook... the list goes on - Hackers want the prize of pitting their bedroom wits against the 'big boy corporates' and they CAN DO IT !!

It'll be a cat and mouse game for ever !

ALWAYS ALWAYS use extra security on your computers.... buy teh best you can afford because they will get you... and the next hacking game will be smart phones... watch out iPhone users !
