The more popular the browser, the more adware and other vunerabilities will be exploited about the browser. Remember when it first came out, Firefox was touted as the "better" browser mainly because it did not have I.E.'s security leaks...well much like how Macs brag about being virus free in the 90's...so as it becomes more worthwhile, more people are using it, hackers will find a way to make it not so good and secure anymore. Firefox is now at version 3.07, mainly because of the exploited issues it had. So as the browser becomes more popular, the more it becomes a PITA because it now loses the security and headache-free browsing it once had.
