Can IE be made totally secure?

[Darren]

I know this may be a loaded question but is it possible to configure
IE and Windows (assumeing you have the latest patches etc) so it is
immuned to hijacks and every other nasty that I could come across on
the web? Or I am just beating my head against the wall by trying to
clean my system and keep the crap off my computer?

 

[oops!!]

Darren,

Nothing can make IE (or any browser) totally secure.

But, there are measures to improve safety.
