LoL... Dont think that FF, Opera or any of them are "Hacker Proof" Dwax... Hackers just hate MS so they prefer to hack MS products...
Firefox works great with WB's though...

not sure I agree with this completely. Some hackers may hate what MS stands for but I'd argue that they love MS. Their products give hackers exactly what they want, an extremely large userbase all using the same software so that the hackers exploits are sure to affect the largest number of people. That's why you don't see exploits for Opera and the other browsers that have extremely small userbases compared to IE's. There have been numerous exploits found in FF they just tend to get fixed faster because there are so many people available that can make the fix.
This is just silly. If I were to write a web page that was meant to be viewed in IE the displaying it in FF would hardly give you an accurate representation of what I intended. Yes, FF supports the W3C standards better than MS, but that doesn't mean they don't take liberal creative license in their implementation. Trust me, I've run into some strange rendering bugs in FF before and getting them fixed is not easy. Some of the FF developers are extremely elitist and they think that their browser is perfect and are less than interested in entertaining requests from normal users.
