actually I think it is you that is missing the point. try checking your web logs and see how many firefox users are even up to date with patches. firefox was advertised and pushed as the secure alternative giving people a false sense of security, it has a poor update mechanism that halk the time fails altogether, more than 50% of firefox hits to the 2 large sites I admin are running 1.06 or early builds of firefox. They can fix these bugs to there hearts content but the majority of there users will remain vulnerable. To make matters worse a public exploit for the latest one has been released to the web.
