Isolate data by domain? I told my browser to not accept cross-site cookies, and that hosed a bunch of sites for me. How are they going to seperate processing of the page by domain?

what about "Dumb Azz Users", that a better name, more descriptive of the problem.

maybe instead of spending all the effort in the world on fixing what is not broken, why not implant electric shock device in web browser users and when they try something stupid we shock them until they learn better ;-)

trying to fix the behavior of monkeys by way of other monkeys on crack is hardly a solution... can't fix the problem if the tools needed are also broken...
 
[citation][nom]drunknmunkys[/nom]haha. The internet is srsbsns![/citation]

But, it is 😛. Do you realize how much the economy depends on it nowdays? If the Internet disappeared tomorrow it would be a catastrophe for hundred of thousands of people.
 
Hell, if the internet disappeared there would be more suicides than a Green Day concert.

After IE I don't know if I'll be using another Microsoft browser.
 
Copycats... >.>

Microshit is copy-I mean, following, Google because Google is that good that they're a year ahead of Microshit. It just makes Google look better :)
 
if Microsoft thinks its such a good idea, why don't they build it into their OS! make it so we can make a "thread" that is more isolated. or give us better exception handling? they just seem to be blindly following google now
 
I use k-meleonCCF and now also qtweb (os). IE is, to me, on par with firefox in the cpu usage dept. FF still has memory issues as well. Believe me, ms NEEDS a new image. It's not that I dislike IE, it's just that I have grown accustomed to simply not using it at all. Plus K-meleonccf and qtweb are both better browsers imo.
Sounds to me like an afterthought, but even so I would welcome a fresh face to the omnipresent IE.
 
Typical MS, copy, copy copy the idea and if you can't do that steal it and if that don't work buy them out or sue them into oblivion. I wouldn't trust this new MS spyware browser, Chrome is just fine.
 
The only way to make a browser 100% safe is to strip it down to the point where no scripts will run - which means lifeless webpages with no bells or whistles. Basically, a generic internet.

But good luck getting sponsors for websites who can't advertise via scripts and banners.
 
Ah MS bashers. These companies all copy each other. History has proven however the MS successfully builds on the ideas of others and then makes a superior product. IE became better than Netscape, Xbox became better than Playstation, Windows was better than Apple, etc. A lot fo ways MS did this. Who cares, let them all keep competing - consumers are the winners here fools. We need MS, Apple, Google, AMD/Intel, etc etc to all remain competitive and outdoing each other. Right?

You're stating a lot of opinions as fact but, in reality they're just that; opinions. I think that OSX beats WinXP/Vista hands down in performance. But, that's just my opinion. There may be benchmarks out there to prove it, but you won't find them on Tom's. Before I start rambling, the subject at hand:

MS and Secure should NEVER be in the same sentence. Each time MS provides a security update it's hacked within days. It's the price they pay for having the most popular OS/Browser on the market. Once this NEW product is released, it will be exploited within a week...make no mistake, you take your chances with MS products...I'll stick with Ubuntu/Firefox...the likelihood of it getting hacked is far less than the MS browser...Besides it's getting too expensive to keep up with their haphazard OS releases lately.
 
.....and as for the name! Who thinks up this crap? I've seen this on discovery channel "Watch as the hungry lion stalks the gazelle in the tall grass." I mean C'mon...Gazelle? Really? What's so secure about a gazelle? All I've ever heard or seen about them is that they're lunch.
 
[citation][nom]Netherscourge[/nom]They should call it "webWOW!"Like ShamWOW!And have that goofy guy talk about it on infomercials.[/citation]
Billy Mays died...they'd have to superimpose images from previous infomercials.
 
Leopard eats Gazelle. So do Tiger & Jaguar. So does Panther. And perhaps Cheetah eats gazelle too.

The ancient Chinese are very picky with naming conventions for things around them, why does Microsoft have to imitate the modern ones instead? Maybe Microsoft really is that inferior to Apple.
