"This is both false and misleading: exploits in IE are more dangerous than in Chrome or Safari because of the way it's hooked up in the OS."

Checking Secunia shows it's not false. And IE / Edge runs as a standard user under Windows, and by default runs in protected mode, so that's also not true. Just check say Pwn2Own...Chrome / Safari usually fall faster than IE.
