That's not what I said. I said "running *in* FF". I don't understand why you
turn one into the other.

There's a difference between FF running *on* Microsoft software, and FF having
Microsoft plugins introduced *into* it. While we have to at a minimum put up
with FF using the Windows IP stack, mostly the rest of the code that is directly
exposed to the internet in FF is not written by MS. It is precisely this type of
code that has caused so many previous security incidents.
