Internet Explorer first, Safari last against phishing
An independent security research group named NSS Labs found that Internet Explorer 8 came out on top at stopping phishing attacks. Firefox and Internet Explorer both tied first followed by Opera and Chrome. Safari was the biggest loser, coming last with only 2% of phishing attempts being blocked and there was no difference between the Mac or Windows client.
You can read the full PDF document that NSS Labs has detailing the testing process and their results.

Internet Explorer 6 Blocker
There has been some issues with my blog and viewing it with Internet Explorer 6 (mainly the lightbox effect) and since Internet Explorer 6 is 8 years old I felt it was time that people should be upgrading their web browsers to atleast Internet Explorer 7.

WebKit gets 100/100 Acid3 test
Well, it looks like the publicly available WebKit (Apple’s Safari) has succeded in getting 100/100 for the Acid3 test. Opera has also claimed it has reached 100/100 too, but is an internal build at the moment.
You can download the latest nightly build of WebKit (r31368 – Windows / r31370 – OS X) over on the WebKit Nightly Builds page, and you can read about it over at Surfin’ Safari. You can also view the anouncement Opera made about the Acid3 results over at the Opera Desktop Team Blog.
