NSS Labs has published a report of a test they made to compare how different browsers managed against socially-engineered malware targeting European users.
Tested browsers were:
-Apple Safari 5
-Google Chrome 10
-Windows Internet Explorer 8
-Windows Internet Explorer 9
-Mozilla Firefox 4
-Opera 11
The test winner was Internet Explorer 9. It was able to catch 92% of malware with its URL-based filtering and 100% with Application-based filtering enabled. The second came Internet Explorer 8 with 90% success of blocking. The third place was shared by Safari 5, Chrome 10 and Firefox 4, each able to stop 13%. Opera 11 was left the last with 5%.
