I don't have the time to spend a few days making a adm/admx file to modify the registry keys to make security configuration changes for widgets run from 0: My computer, 1: the local Intranet, 2: The Intranet, 3: untrusted Sites, etc...
I have five pages of settings on how to configure IE on my network. Almost every one of those security settings is applicable to Firefox, or any other browser. I have personally posted this to bugzilla, slashdot, etc... and the answer is: "Do it yourself (TM)" or use an obselete adm template for an old version of (Mozilla, Seamonkey, Firefox 2.x) - they should work.
I want to use a non IE browser at work. Yes, I will also have to use IE due to IE only applications we have - but at least not 100% of the time. The developers want to use Firefox outside of the sandbox. SECURE says: You have to implement the same security settings on every browser.
If I had to guess, I would say that Google will implement adm/admx files for security settings for Chrome on XP/7 before Firefox will. At that point, Chrome will get a large % gain in browser share because it will be implentable on corporate networks.
oops: http://dev.chromium.org/administrators/policy-templates they allready did it. Guess that's why Chrome has surpassed Firefox share.
Dev's requesting Chrome for their department in 3,2,1....
