Recently a new flaw was discovered in Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser,
and this flaw can have serious ramifications for all Internet users who use
this browser. The flaw allows the owner of a website to create a page that
will download and run programs on the user's computer. The user does not
have to do anything but visit the website and unknowingly view the malicious
page.
This means the owner of the website could install malicious software that
would take control of the user's computer and steal personal information
that could lead to identity theft. Microsoft, at the time of this writing,
does not have a fix or patch to correct this flaw. We recommend that all
concerned individuals ensure that they have up-to-date anti-virus and
anti-spyware solutions installed on their computers for personal protection.
Currently, the only work-around is to temporarily discontinue the use of
Microsoft Internet Explorer and use another browser, such as FireFox
(www.mozilla.com) until Microsoft can issue a patch. |
