Microsoft's head of security, Stephen Toulouse, has accidentally
revealed that he uses Firefox. In an interview with Wired
(http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.09/view.html?pg=3), Toulouse was
chatting about how security was an industry wide problem and not
Internet Explorer specific.

Actually he uses Maxthlon.

"Stephen Toulouse:
A word about the Wired article. I didn't "reveal" that I run Firefox. The
interview itself was a 45 minute long affair from which they distilled
four questions and answered them with paraphrases from my answers to the
questions during the total interview. That's how their hot seat
interviews are done.

What I stated in regards to Firefox is that as a security professional I
keep abreast of a variety of products on test machines and that just that
morning I had to install an update on the machine running Firefox, which
was true. That got distilled down to just the last part, that I had to
update Firefox to apply a critical security fix.

And I didn't say Windows would finally be secure in 2011. When asked
about our efforts I pointed out that security is a journey not a
destination, and that our trustworthy computing initiative was a 10 year
one.

Lest anyone be confused, my primary browser is SP2 Internet Explorer
using Maxthon."
