What should I update my web browser for?

Now more than ever, Web sites are taking advantage of all the new functionality that today's Web browser offers; HTML5 movie and sound, enhanced JavaScript, and stylesheet style all depend on you having a Web browser today. Unless you are using the latest release of your web browser, you are likely to miss some of the latest functions.

A lot of webpages ( incl. very big ones like Gmail, YouTube and Facebook ) have discontinued support for older browser releases. When you run something that is very outdated, you probably won't be able to use some or all of the functions of these webpages.

Your personally identifiable information (including email, bank account information, on-line purchases, photographs and other confidential information) may be lost or misappropriated as a result of the vulnerability. When your computer's safety is threatened, you also run the threat of being used as an "intermediary" in on-line criminality or as an ignorant peasant in major assaults against other web surfers or businesses.

Even if your personally identifiable information is not taken, your computer can be transformed into a "zombie;" sendin' tons of junk email a single working day, as well as being compelled to take part in denial-of-service attack against other Web sites without your even knowing it. Be sure to patch and update your web browser by following your provider's directions.
