Security risks swell for Microsoft's Explorer | |

Using Microsoft's Internet Explorer Web browser to surf the Internet has become a marked risk — even with the latest security patches installed. That's the upshot of the discovery of yet another Internet Explorer security hole being exploited by intruders bent on swiping personal information from unwitting Internet users. The SANS Institute Internet Storm Center issued an alert this week about pop-up ads designed to download a program that keeps track any time a PC user clicks to the log-in page of 50 financial institutions worldwide. The program captures log-in information and sends it to another Web site, before the bank can encrypt the data. |

#7 - IIS 5.x certainly had its problems... but IIS 6 is rock solid. (It was a complete rewrite.)
It's both the fastest and arguably most secure web server out there. I highly recommend it. The same, of course, cannot be said of IE. |
