Who do you trust?

Oh, this is rich. After all our mess these past two weeks regarding banking and trojans, I find this article to be a peach: Serious security flaw found in IE. You don't have to read it if you don't want to; I'll sum up for you. IE sucks and has a security flaw that could compromise your system. It's recommended that you use another browser (Firefox is a good choice) until they can create an emergency patch. Actually, I misspoke. It's recommended by everyone but Microsoft that you switch temporarily. Heck, while you're at it, just go ahead and post a list of your passwords on Facebook or MySpace!

Almost as (un)funny is the advice given on my bank's website. You'll recall that all this crapola began when McAfee fell asleep at the wheel.
