Newsline 19 January 2010: Can the EU agree on collective security measures? Who is paying Geert Wilders' legal bills? And why some governments advise against using Microsoft's Internet Explorer.

 

EU divided on flight security
Authorities on both sides of the Atlantic are struggling with tighter security measures following the failed terrorist attack on a Christmas Day flight from Amsterdam to Detroit. Tomorrow, justice ministers from the European Union will meet in Spain to look for ways to improve counter-terrorism operations across the 27 member states. But, as ever with the EU, there is disagreement on how to go about it. Vanessa Mock reports.


Geert Wilders' legal bills

Controversial Dutch politician Geert Wilders will enter an Amsterdam court tomorrow for the first day of his trial on charges of inciting hatred. But who is paying the Freedom Party leader's legal bills? Political editor John Tyler puts the question to Mr Wilders himself.


MS Internet Explorer not secure

The French and German goverments have taken the unusual step of warning people not to use Microsoft Internet Explorer and choose another browser instead. The move comes after cyber experts found a leak in the browser, enabling Chinese hackers to access web users' personal details. Listen to Professor Bart Jacobs of Radboud University Nijmegen explain the technology. And why The Netherlands is not following France and Germany's lead.
