[QUOTE="HarborFront, post: 951398, member: 55987"] My view is that you are looking at the same coin from its 2 sides. FF, OOB, is not hardened. User needs to apply browser settings (or the optional js file) to harden it..................provided you know what settings to apply for hardening. FF is more suited for beginners and learn the hardening process as it gets along. In FF you can cherry-pick the settings you want to apply to the browser. FF is a mainstream browser, but too much hardening can cause site problems too. LW is immediate hardened FF. User don't have to know what settings to apply. Of course, the flexibility is there for the user to adjust the settings..................provided you know what settings to adjust in the files. Too much flexibility in applying to the settings will result in losing its hardened features, in which case the FF browser would be better suited here. You may need to make much leeway in using this browser if you do not intend (or don't know how) to change the settings when a problem arises. Also, it is a non-mainstream browser and will have site problems. You can get both the support from forums to adjust the settings in the browsers. For beginners, it is better to start with FF and learn the way of hardening using browser settings and the js file(option). [/QUOTE]
