Adam, a novice web user, is very conscious about the security. He wants to visit the Web site that is known to have malicious applets and code. Adam always makes use of a basic Web Browser to…

Mozilla Firefox is a full-featured browser with a JavaScript engine and plugin support, meaning it can execute malicious scripts and applets present on dangerous websites.

Internet Explorer supports JavaScript, ActiveX, and VBScript, all of which are common vectors for malicious web-based code execution.

Lynx renders only plain HTML text and does not execute JavaScript, Java applets, ActiveX controls, Flash, or any other active client-side content. Because the vast majority of malicious web payloads rely on these scripting and plugin technologies to execute, Lynx provides natural isolation from them. This makes Lynx an appropriate tool for a security tester who needs to inspect a dangerous site without risking code execution.

Safari is a full-featured browser with a JavaScript engine that can process and execute client-side scripts, leaving it susceptible to malicious web content.
