IE is more popular therefore more 'bad guys' are looking to find "holes" there. It's very simple. Install Firefox on each PC and you'll see how 'good' it will be...[/QUOTE]
That's exactly what I think about Linux. Who'll waste their time trying to develop viruses and other shit for a system used by only a few people? I bet if 45% of the computers had Linux and 45% had Windows, Linux would be more dangerous, as the number of users would be the same as Windows, and as the source code is open for anyone, it would be a bit easier to find "holes".

Same here - it's not well protected browser, it's just not-well-researched-for-the-holes browser, because very few people interested in that kind of research. From what I know - Firefox have some critical (for PC) holes which are more dangerous than any non-patched ( http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com is a good place if you're afraid for you IE) MS products.

Hackers can use certain "imperfections" on IE to hack into your computer and control it remotely, install/delete stuff, log your keyboard, etc.
