This month’s security updates indicate that IE6 has a few problems (Critical rating), and IE7 is looking pretty good (just Important rating). Further, if you were to base your view solely on the numbers you could be fooled into thinking that IE8 is a more secure browser (as some have been) due it not having any patch this month.

Whilst we’d love to believe that, the reality is far more likely to be that hardly anyone is using it yet, and thus no significant security flaws have been discovered so far. Give it time we say.
