    Does anyone know anything about the major new Internet Explorer security loophole?

    ... and why, with all their money and brains, can't Microsoft release something that is secure?

    there are lots of loop hole in IE, like auto saving the passwords, weaker security, public display of IP, and more.

    Reputable experts recommend that you use another browser (Firefox, Opera, Safari, Chrome...)--at least until Micro$oft releases a patch on Wed the 17th.

    I'll always be willing to trade some security for functionality. Building a totally secure browser would be like putting 15 deadbolt locks on your front door---secure, but not very practical.
