I had to see it to belive it! But yes its true. Slate, Mirosoft's online magazine has this article titled "Are the Browser Wars Back?" (How Mozilla's Firefox trumps Internet Explorer.)

A stern measure was expected from Microsoft after the Download.ject virus and CERT recommends other browsers like Mozilla, Firefox. But I didn't expect this.

If Microsoft is really concerned about the security of its users, then this is step in the right direction, and quite frankly should have been done a long time ago. If this is just the authors' point of view, even then I am glad that atleast someone is awakening to the realties.

Let us hope for some more recommendations from Microsoft.
