Here is (i hope) an interesting question...Personally, i use google chromium on my Kubuntu 10.10 and have been very happy with it, but i have a friend who is on windows xp all these years and he is considering installing Kubuntu and leaving windows because he loves the kde look and applications and likes all the advantages of linux over windows..
But here is the thing, he also absolutely loves the way the fonts render in Internet Explorer (which are very difficult if not impossible to EXACTLY DUPLICATE in any browser your normally run on linux...and he would like to bring it over with him...
I know you can run Internet Explorer browser through the wine type programs like wine, wine doors, playonlinux,
but my question is this:
Would browsing with Internet Explorer on a linux system through wine compromise it's security?
Or would it be as safe as using, say Google Chromium, Firefox, etc...
