2010/1/4-19 [Politics/Domestic/911] UID:53611 Activity:moderate | 1/4 Why the fascination with blowing up airplanes? Airports have tight
security. It doesn't seem worth it. It's far easier to derail a

attempting to fix a spiraling economy. Plus it seems that the

version of Firefox will soon be vulnerable to online attacks." Are
they planning to turn off some security feature in my version of
