ActiveX was reigned in with SP2.
Less severe? How about running firefox on linux and it allowing a
url to do shell execution?. 
Look, I think firefox is an excellent product. 1.0.7 is loaded on my machine and I use it about 30% of the time. I'm just sick of the smug anti-windows crowd crowing on how much MS sucks at security when the products they run are every bit as bad. The only difference is that no one seems to bother to write expoits for the sub 5% marketshare space.
