It's a battle as old as time: good vs. evil. Fortunately, Linux and FOSS are on our side as we wage the battle against those who try to steal our secrets and invade our systems.
Checking your system's security is best done sooner rather than later. Test the locks with our article on security verification; find out how to use PAM to help secure your systems; use MinorFS and AppArmor to implement discretionary access control; learn more about Samba security in part III of our series; use Darknet to help detect bots and secure your systems; use the Yubikey to increase your site's security; and don't forget to lock the doors, because a cold boot attack could render your security useless if somebody has physical access to your computer.
But, we're not just about sowing the seeds of fear. We also show you how to use memcached in Rails, how to manage multiple servers efficiently, how to deploy applications easily with Capistrano, how to manage your videos with MythVideo, how to mix it up a bit (your audio that is), and even play a few games.
Who cares?

If you are using Windows you are using something inferior to begin with, and as such should just give up at life in a technological world. Moving on however : Firefox is just another browser based upon Mozilla. Seamonkey, Mozilla, Netscape, Flock, and all of the other Mozilla browsers are (for the most part) on equal footing. A feature here or there but not many differences. Maxthon, Avant, and a million more are based upon IE and as such suffer the same security flaws that plague IE, Windows Media Player, and nearly every other Mirosoft product in general. KDE, Opera and a few others are your only true alternatives that still contain the usual features that one would expect in a modern browser. If you want to complain about speed... just use Dillo and be done with it. It is faster than all of the others. You want standards compliance? Use w3m. You want the widest and best viewing? Opera or IE. You want mediocre? Mozilla (and compat.). None are the best.
