From the post: "Google has urged millions of Chrome users to update their browsers after uncovering a malicious attack that lets hackers take control of computers.

The tech giant warned cybercriminals are using malicious pop-up windows or websites to gain access to an unsuspecting victim's personal information.

A 'critical' update has been rolled out, which closes the loophole that makes your servers vulnerable to what's called a 'zero day' attack.

The name stems from the fact a perpetrator found a weakness before the manufacturer, leaving zero days to fix the issue because the server has already been compromised. "

Just another technology abused to be used in ways that never made sense and was a pain in the ass if you were using anything but Windows.

This same statement applies to the browser perfectly. It was and still is designed for viewing HTML but it has been bastardized into all manner of technology abuses that don't fit its core purpose. It needs to die and get replaced with newer and better application delivery technologies. The current implementation is completely fucked.

Yeah, ill agree with that. At this point you may as well just consider the browser a operating system all of its own. Along with all of the problems that brings.
