How many of these vulnerabilities were due to Firefox itself, and how many due to plugins? Does it matter? If FF allows the plugins enough control over the browser to present a vulnerability in the browser, then that's a vulnerability in FF that they need to fix. Saying "oh no, we don't have vulnerabilities ourselves, we just allow vulnerable plugins to run" doesn't speak much to the security of Fire Fox. In other words, the cop-out doesn't fly. If FireFox is vulnerable to something another browser is not, i t has one more vulnerability than that browser, period.
Big Jeff, you appear to put a lot of time in on Slashdot. Do you do it for a living?
