I just happen to have enough experience playing defense against those things that I know that no OS is bulletproof, nor is any browser.
Sure. That doesn't mean they're equivalent. I just happen to have enough experience playing offense against those things that I know when I have a choice between SE and OBSD, it doesn't take a kalashtar to figure out which one I'd pick. Anyone who thinks differently is a sucker. Everything has zero-days, but some are easier than others. Any other trite advice? BAREET UR COOKIES. DON'T CLICK TEH LINKS. Thanks, cap'n.
Bulk exploits are written for volume and ease of use - Chrome on Windows for market share; Firefox and IE because they're easier. Safari's in the mix now because OSX got enough market share, but that's mostly playing on Apple slow-ass updates. Targeted updates mean you're probably fucked, and it doesn't matter what you're running, because they're parked out front with a van reading your keyboard.

Given that, it's a good idea to clear your browser cache after each session or at least on a semi-regular basis just in case your PC does get compromised.
No, see, that's just gay and retarded. What's the vector of attacking a browser's cache? The browser. If somebody gets root on my system when I'm not browsing (or even when I am, but that's how they'd do it), the last thing I'm worried about is my history. (Or cache, but that's a distinction without a difference, attack-wise, in the last decade, since new sessions won't load from cache anyway.) I don't know what whacky-ass shit DeVry taught you, but I'd ask for my money back. Either delete it all after every page load, or don't bother. They're not after your tranny scat pron, believe me.

Bookmarks are not affected by clearing temporary cache files and history. Plus, they can do several things far more efficiently than autocomplete.
Like what? Wanna have a keyboard race?
You know you can delete individual history items, right? Or load individual sites without them getting cached?

By all means though, stick with whatever works for you, regardless of how efficient or inefficient it is versus the other options.
Great, thanks.
