[nfbcs] NVDA and IE find

[Gabe Vega]

Can you please explain to me how "you" think it is not secure?

I ask this because I am a technology trainer and consultant for several state governmental agencies and we use I.E 8, and we don't find it to be a problem. Something tells me you are going more by what you here and less by what you really know.
