Criteria

Internet Explorer 7.0

Safari 3.0
|
Firefox 3.0

| Out of the box configuration: In their own ways, all three of these browsers are delivered in an overly trusting configuration. If you’re serious about being secure in your Web browsing habits, it’s clear you’ll need to spend some time fine-tuning each of these products. |
Score: D internet zone | Score: F | Score: D safe browsing |
| Security features: All three browsers offer some rudimentary security controls in the way of being able to allow or disallow broad categories of content, such as Javascript, Java, or ActiveX. But by default, these features are so broad in their “all or nothing” approaches as to be next to worthless. | Score: D | Score: F | Score: C |
| Security add-ons: the first thing to take control of in securing a browser is active content. None of the three browsers is great at that out of the box | Score: D | Score: D | Score: B |
| Integration with operating system: This category is not directly security-related, but it is nevertheless important in selecting a browser. | Score: A | Score: A | Score: D |
So the most secure browser probably Firefox 3.0, any opinion?
