The scary part was the limitation that hackers weren't allowed to exploit Windows vulnerabilities. When you think of how many unpatched Windows 7 (or older) machines are out there it's no wonder botnets keep growing..

Where do many of these hackers come from? What is their background?<p>I ask, as wish to know at a high level what tools and code they are using to find and exploit Chrome.

The article makes it sound like since "6 separate bugs" were needed to bring down Chrome, it proves that its a more secure browser (than presumably IE or Firefox). But in 10 days a teenager found 6 bugs in Chrome in 2012? That doesn't sound more secure.
