    Yep. When firefox breaks, let's blame Microsoft. Bitching Microsoft is supposed to be cool, right? :-\ Alternatively, since FF is open source, how about you take a look at the diff for the component in question, investigate what's broken, and provide a fix like a real programmer? ;)

        Isn't Microsoft to blame for all the failures in this world? I bet they're also guilty for the Apple Maps failures.

          Where's the fun in that? Apparently it's better to bitch and moan than to actually do something about it.

            You can blame Apple for worker condiditons at Foxconn and be cool but when it comes to hardware/software the blame must all go to Microsoft.

                            Deepak, Microsoft isn't to be blamed for broken code in FireFox. And this isn't a discussion about ethics. They bribed best buy staff to talk crap about apple and linux doesn't mean they've injected trojans into FireFox. But then again, it's a harsh world like the other person said. :)

                                Ethics and morality, good and evil are not absolute. They change from one age to the other, and are different in various geographic areas. No, what I mean is that it's not just Microsoft that does that. Everybody tries to outsell their competitors and are using all possible means for that.
