Re: Chrome BETA Available said by SUMware:[Firefox 3 does not leak incoming and outgoing TPC on XP nor Linux on my box as tested numerous times at GRC. Either you didn't do the test correctly or you failed to do the Cross Context test at all. It the latter test that Fx fails (it passes the main cookie test but only because the Mozilla developers caught wind of Steve's project before Fx3 was released and rushed a fix through for it but they did not fix the cross context vulneralbilities only the glaring major TPC ones. IE (all versions) fail the main test and the Cross Context. The tests have to be done properly and, unfortunately, even for us testers that was not always simple and obvious. The tests are not yet available to the general public.

The tests were performed correctly with Firefox 3.0.1 (just minutes ago, twice, without Proxo, NoScript, etc.) and included the Cross Context test.

Mele, evidently you are running the world famous FUBAR browser (and, knowing you, also probably misconfigured). |

kudos:4 | I can reproduce the results you got ....anyone can....by cheating. Everyone doing the test correctly sees Fx leaking TPC on the context test. Your cheap attack on my character makes me even more certain that either you don't how to do the tests or you cheated.
If you look at the pages there you'll see they are not finished. That is because Steve Gibson decided to work on the DNS Nameserver Spoofability Test and that is almost finished now so he will be finishing up the cookie forensics tests soon.

What can I say except that you clearly have more pressing personal issues than TPC. |
