Maybe this will give you a better idea of what a security hole is http://www.computerterrorism.com/research/ie/poc.htm

This only works with IE it shows how IE can be used to execute another program on your computer from any website. the example above will execute calculator when you click on the link. Do you see where this could be a problem? This is a huge problem!
