FireFox is much better because the spyware makers don't make stuff for it. At the rate FireFox is growing in popularity it wont be long before the spyware makers realise they have a new market for their wares and FireFox gets hit just as badly as IE.
And of course since FireFox is open source, there is nothing to stop the spyware makers putting out their own version, not to mention it's going to be easier for them to get stuff into existing installs because they will have full access to the code to look for exploits.
So if you want FireFox to stay as "secure" as it is, you really don't want it to become so popular that it becomes a target.
