Check the security of your web browser

Simple and fast way to see if your web browser, or more specifically, your browser plug-ins, are secure.  Try Qualys Browser Check.  Once on the site, it will prompt you to install a plug-in for whichever browser you are using when you access the site.  Once the plug-in is installed, it will perform a check on all your plug-ins and alert you to which are outdated (hence, a security problem).  More impressive is that it will link you to the most updated version of that plug-in.  A must have site to keep your browser secure.
