Given Mozilla's open and transparent approach, we are very detailed on how we publish our vulnerability reports, and we list each vulnerability separately. Other vendors don't. Other vendors often combine multiple vulnerabilities, for instance, into one security bulletin.

We're strongly recommending all users upgrade to the latest version.

The high level, from our perspective, is that it's hard to make any sort of apples-to-apples comparison. But we believe our process works and we are the safest browser around.

We've had a pretty successful year following the launch of Firefox 1.0 and we're continuing to see very strong demand.

We're using our extension space as a virtual research and development effort to test out new capabilities for the browser before they are incorporated.

We're delivering a software update capability that is holistic, that takes into account how people use Firefox. This feature is one of the most significant enhancements. It has been a pain point for Firefox users and we believe we've delivered a solution that will let people stay current.

Less than 72 hours ago, and we responded to the bug reporter in 20 minutes. Of course this will be a priority for us.

This is exactly what the beta is for -- to find the flaws now. We want people to kick the tires and tell us what they find out. We want to make sure all the extensions people use are readily portable. We're very good at responding to users.

I don't think a comparison of the raw count of vulnerabilities is representative of the security of a product.
