> eyes of hackers

Absolutely! That is part of the perk of Open Source. Who better to find and expose holes than hackers? The fact that hackers are looking it over from the inside out is a boon to debugging and problem finding. The faster the hackers find them - the faster they can be fixed.

The big difference is that when a hole is found in Mozilla, it can be fixed literally overnight. Whereas a few of the latest IE holes have been known since 1998.

Anyway, back to the topic at hand - please update your windows systems.
