 As it is bookmarks are fairly well set out with a couple of extensions that can help personalise it, however there is one big flaw when the list of bookmarks gets too long.
 With 200+ bookmarks the search capacities of firefox would be much appreciated if they were more useful, we need options so that the search bar in the bookmarks sidebar searches not only in a page's title but also URL, key words and description. Possibly an extra tab in the options page for this feature.
+== Security ==
+Recently, there has been an increasing amount of security problems discovered in Firefox. Since September 2006, there hasn't been a month without an update fixing several severe security problems. While I welcome these problems being found and fixed, I am a little worried about the quality of the Firefox code.
+Security problems get exploited more and more agressively. Many users originally switched from IE to Firefox for security reasons. That's why I feel it is important to make sure that the current code is relatively secure. While absolute security probably cannot be reached it is important to get the code to a quality level where new security issues come up at a much slower rate, hopefully no more then one severe issue per year.
+Making sure existing things work isn't as exciting as creating something new. That's why the new Feature list should be kept relatively limited so more resources can be used to improve the security of the existing code.
