Two new vulnerabilities have been discovered in Internet Explorer which allow a complete bypass of security and provide system access to a computer, including the installation of files on someone's hard disk without their knowledge, through a single click.
Worse, the holes have been discovered from analysis of an existing link on the Internet and a fully functional demonstration of the exploit have been produced and been shown to affect even fully patched versions of Explorer.
It has been rated "extremely critical" by security company Secunia, and the only advice is to disable Active Scripting support for all but trusted websites.

LOL!

I'd be weird and print up a few jokes cards like that, but that's me.

Would also make a great tagline . . .
Uh oh.
I'm giving ideas for taglines again...
*chuckle*
All yours for the taking if you want it.
I'm guessing that 0.9 is mainly bugfixes, code streamlining--under the hood type stuff.
Do they use the linux kernel versioning system? if so 0.9 is a beta, probably yhe base beat for improvements to go into .10
I don't believe so. The last stable version was 0.7. My guess is that the RC (Release Candidate) is the beta for 0.9 stable.
Paging the InfoSec pinglist... Let me know if you want to be 1 or 0.
(That's ON or OFF, for those who are not binary-compliant)
This is very interesting, I suggest you read the entire article.
JUST DAMN
Please add me to the list
Thanks much.
IE hangs persistently on some sites. Have removed lots of spyware etc. and it still hangs maybe 20-30% of the time.
And, now, I have the fun little LU1803 NORTON LIVE UPDATE PROBLEM which carefully following all 3 of their suggested fixes has been TOTALLY USELESS.
GRRRRR.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks for the ping.
I had nothing but trouble with Nortons.
I finally downloaded the free AVG and have had no problems since.
Thanks.
I used to use AVG. I got caught with a virus once in Taipei several years ago--even though I updated AVG fairly constantly. That's when I switched. Didn't like that experience. Maybe they are better now.
Sigh.
Thanks.
