why firefox is better than IE, and Comodo CA is more powerful than DigiNotar :(

there is an interesting story about DigiNotar in sans.org

Interestingly when I check My Firefox , DigiNotar CA Cert has been removed.

actually Firefox has published a KB on how to remove DigiNotar CA cert
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/deleting-diginotar-ca-cert

Interestingly IE still has the DigiNotar CA Cert..

more interestingly Comodo CA Cert is still in Firefox... even though some time in the past they were forged Comodo Certs...
