Microsoft bad press

In today's issue of USA TODAY (money section) there was a major article on pc security problems. In the section on what to do to prevent problems there was the usual list of stuff to do such as use anti-virus softweare and firewalls, but in addition there was the recommendation to stop using Microsoft Internet Explorer and to replace it with Mozilla. For Microsoft this is not a good sign. USA TODAY is a main line paper that is not targeted to geeks, but rather is read by average people. For such a paper, in a major article, to have a recommendation to stop using MS-IE is unusal. It is an indication that Microsoft is having major public relations problems.
