You know something other people don't
A Harris poll this year found that about half of surfers don't know that some web browsers are more vulnerable to viruses and spyware. (49% give or take a 5% margin of error).
Your first question, of course, should be "who paid for the survey"? It was Opera, which makes a web browser with a pretty good security record and would doubtless like to sell more.
Only 11% of the people surveyed had, as I have, switched browsers for security reasons.
