A pitch for Firefox security

The Mozilla Foundation passed on using a condom-themed poster to tout its Firefox browser, but volunteers want to revive the ad to emphasize the software's security features.

rather tacky. "always use protection"? does that include protecting yourself from having a family - you know, the most important creation of God?

I think this ad is great! It's fun and gets the point across. Lighten up a bit and laugh. It's better then all the same old stuff you see on commercials and ad's which reflects Firefox in my opinion; new, different, fun and safer.

I'm sorry that your closed-minded, ultra-conservative brain can't handle someone having a different belief than you and you feel the need to press your religion upon every aspect of the world, including a humorous internet ad.

Instead of using the overused sex icon of a condom for protection. How about
a picture of a group of mafia guys with their arms folded or holding oozies
Title it:For protection like this you used to pay through the nose. Now their is firefox!
