Check your browser for vulnerabilities with Browser Checking tool

Browser Checking is a plug-in for Google Chrome, Internet Explorer and Firefox that scans and detect potential vulnerabilities and security holes in your browser and lets you fix the issues discovered by the scan.

This is similar to Mozilla’s plug-in Check that checks your browser for installed plug-ins and lets you know if they need to be updated.

However, currently Browser Checking tool checks only a few plugins and browsers such as flash player, Adobe reader, Sun Java, Windows media Player, Silverlight, etc, but they are very critical to the system security.

The tool created by the security company Qualys can be downloaded at source. [via]
