This past week, Mozilla announced a security vulnerability in Firefox (ok, they say that the flaw is with Internet Explorer). The basics of the flaw are this: If you use Internet Explorer to go to an Interent site which is infected with the exploit, and you have Firefox installed, Internet Explorer will use a vulnerability in Firefox to exploit your computer. OK. While technically it is Firefox that exploits your computer, it cannot be done without Internet Explorer (Thank you, Microsoft).
All that said, here is the REAL humor in the situation. The head of security for Mozilla has an intriguing name: Window Snyder.
Seems to me that Window is working for the wrong company, huh? But, wait. Window USED TO work for Microsoft. How amusing THAT must have been, no?
