I find that in general this is true. However, what makes MS Internet client software dangerous is not bugginess (most of the time) but instead MS's stubborn refusal to admit that there are certain basic security procedures that software authors should follow to help ensure safe surfing for their users. That having been said, I agree with Brad that all the talk about lawsuits is pointless.
