I've never been interested in browser plugins. Can somebody tell me if browser plugins for IE (activeX) or firefox can read (any) files on the HDD? (when they know exact path). Somebody have told me that it is insecure to store sensitive data into "application data" folder because it can be accesses by web plugins. Is it true? I'd guess they can access any files/folders with active user permissions.
