Well, that didn’t take long

Reported today by Secunia, a new Microsoft IE vulnerability has been found. I don’t think there is any indication of whether this is also a vulnerability in IE6 on XP SP2, but I am not gonna test it.

I like the solution that is given to avoid being compromised.

Solution:
Disable Active Scripting or use another product.

Doesn’t get much more cut and dry than that.

Hat Tip: Dave

    Has Microsoft released any information on why they keep trying? I truly wish I knew.

    “Use another product” - what a great tip! :-)
