Firefox update system is the most efficient

Source: Mozilla Links / Percy Cabello

According to a recent blog post by Secunia a security research firm Firefox users are the most updated and, consequently, the least vulnerable among web browser users:

"Comparing browsers and looking at Firefox, Opera and Internet Explorer, we found out that Firefox 2 is the least vulnerable, as only 5.19% of all Firefox 2 installations miss security updates, whereas 11.96% of all Opera 9.x installations miss security updates, and the numbers for IE6 and IE7 are 9.61% and 5.4% respectively. These numbers are not that alarming and show that users are fairly concerned about applying relevant updates for their browsers --- which naturally is one of the most exposed applications."
