Mozilla has no security risks, but apparently I've locked MSIE down so far that the test won't even run on it.

EDIT: Oops, opened the wrong link. Now MSIE's so thoroughly fucked up that it's even screwing up LiteStep.

Opera 7:

High Risk Vulnerabilities: 0
Medium Risk Vulnerabilities : 1
Low Risk Vulnerabilities: 0

I'm still curious why it tells me to get IE 6 SP 1 when I'm not using IE and, in fact, it doesn't exist on my computer anymore.

0 security risks for mozilla, but the browser crashed shortly after.

It refuses to test IE4

Thats probably cause your opera's configured to identify itself as IE 5.

Nope it identifies itself as Opera (and 7 identifies itself as IE 6.0)

Comments: The test was slow and opened a shitload of popups as well as several file-download boxes. One popup was uncloseable to the point of needing forcible termination with CTRL-ALT-DELETE.

I love Mozilla too.

It's a common fact that IE was practically invented to see how scriptkiddies could hack it, I can't understand why even beginners still use it.

I enabled JavaScript the first time asked, then disabled it all other times. IE still got screwed up.
