But I'll wager considerably less on this list no? I'm surprised if not,
seeing as pretty much every security exploit out there leverages either
Javascript, Japa applets or Flash. I'd assume those here are fairly well
informed people who's skin would crawl at the thought of
indiscriminately running any old 3rd party code your browser stumbles
across.

BTW, I'm not advocating ditching Firefox for Lynx, just NoScript, or at
least AdBlock!

Roger.
