I like the Chromebook and Chromebox adverts, but thats probably just me.
When I see a statement such as "IE9 is better at blocking malware than Chrome, Safari, and Firefox combined" I think of it as some clever marketing spin. Reason being is if you got the malware issues of Chrome+Safari+Firefox and compared the result with IE9 malware issues and you see how some statements can be true whilst not being accurate. This is the issue with any sample based comparision. There are many forms of issues out there and new ones every day at times. Lets face it only last week IE9 was open to a expliot that the other browsers were not and was emergency patched by microsoft shrtly afterwards.
True answear is no one browser is secure all the time and if you come across a new unpatched expliot in one browser then the option to fallback to another browser is better than being open until it is patched.
From my personal experience I've found Opera to be the best out the box for blocking general crap. Shame that was not included in there testing, especialy if they wish to give out solid advice. Also note these are desktop browsers and in that, how mobile browsers fair is still a question left unansweared.
