It is NOT to blame. The problem is tech journalists will pick this up and sensationalize it. (That's when people start assuming and blaming!) I have two questions though: (1) Does this affect issue Firefox 3 under Linux? (2) If I use Firefox 3 under Windows XP Pro, will the security issue work under a Limited User Account with Software Restriction Policy as defined here? => http://www.mechbgon.com/srp/ Thanks.

I thought that the "Carpet Bomb" behaviour was fixed in 3.1.2. Are you saying it is not fixed? Are you really claiming that users should remove Safari 3.1.2 until Apple fix the issue? Because that's how you're being reported. That’s clarification? I thought that the “Carpet Bomb” behaviour was fixed in 3.1.2. Are you saying it is not fixed?
