The most offensive problems of using browsers is that they do not tell you nor ask your permission when javascripts spy on your entire storage contents. I had asked a java developer at Sun Microsystems about what Sun means when it says that Java runs in a sandbox? Just what is the sandbox? I also asked if browsers that execute javascripts are retricted to this notion of a sandbox that does not leak out into the rest of the system.
He said the "sandbox" is the entire storage on your computer.
Enough said.
It is my understanding that Java and Javascript are different; that Java is dangerous whilst Javascript is (hopefully) harmless.
