On a related note--how many people have initiated a move away from IE to
Firefox/Opera etc in a corporate environment, due to the perception(is it
JUST a perception or reality based?) that IE is less secure/more prone to
exploits?

I am working on developing best pratices for deploying Firefox to make
web browsing more safer. Basically the idea is to use Firefox + key
security plugins and publish it on a citrix box. Publishing on a
citrix box prevents the user from destroying their desktops by
unintentionally downloading spyware/adware/malware . Citrix acts as a
"graphical firewall". Here is a paper that describes it in details:
