I've been playing with Chrome in Windows lately, and I haven't installed Flash. I was surprised at the number of sites that now support the Video tag in HTML 5, or run with Silverlight.*

*Silverlight is only installed so I can watch my Netflix

That's never something new...

The truth is anything that is popular will become the target, even though firefox and chrome has grown in the market share, still many users still use IE, and Windows, so who gets all the bad PR...Microsoft

So it is also true that most of the alternates are more secure simply because no one is really bothering to find the venerabilities in other software
