firefox

Bug trackers have had a couple false starts with the release of Firefox 2.0, a top Mozilla engineer said Thursday.
Of the two vulnerabilities reported since the browser's release on Tuesday, the first was patched in a previous version and the second alleged problem couldn't be replicated during testing, said Mike Schroepfer, vice president of engineering.

The first problem caused the browser to crash in some cases when text was displayed. The second problem was described as a cross-scripting attack, and sample attack code was posted on the Internet, Schroepfer said.

My first blog entry is not so much a contribution as a question. This is my third attempt at a log-in, the first two having failed. The only difference in my behaviour is that this one is using Microsoft Internet Explorer while the two failed attempts were from Mozilla Firefox. Was my choice of browser the reason for the failures?
