The Mozilla Foundation announced the Mozilla Security Bug Bounty Program, an initiative that rewards users who identify and report security vulnerabilities in the open source project's software. Sponsered by Linspire, Inc and Mark Shuttleworth, the program will give $500 to users who report a significant bug in Mozilla software. Users who identify security bugs in Mozilla software are encouraged to go to the Security Projects Page for more information.

With a move like this, MS would possibly go bankrupt.
