Default Opera for windows 98

Older versions have more vulnerabilities. My experience looking
through Secumia reports has been that older versions of Firefox
tend to be a little less secure that Opera versions.


Opera 9 has the following unpatched vulnerabilities:

Details:

http://www.opera.com/support/kb/view/929/ (trivial)
http://www.opera.com/support/kb/view/930/ (trivial)
http://www.opera.com/support/kb/view/932/ (trivial)
http://www.opera.com/support/kb/view/934/ (I say trivial)

For e-mail and usenet news reading, I use Netscape Communicator 4.79.
For web browsing, I use firefox 2.0.0.20. No known vulnerabilities to
either of those that have been shown to be in circulation or effective
when used in conjunction with Windows 98.
