For pete's sake, please get Firefox..
I've just been informed of an incredible bug in the Windows Fax/Picture Viewer. A simple img for example, when purposely corrupted, can lead to arbitrary code execution on the viewer's com.
What this means is that all you have to do is look at the file and boom I can run any commands i want to on your com.
So let me make it simple for you people out there. Firefox 1.0.7 IS NOT AFFECTED BY THIS. ALL VERSIONS OF INTERNET EXPLORER ARE.....
Please go and get firefox today because not only is it safer, it's simply better.
Actually, to be exact, there were TWO bugs found with regard to the Window Fax/Picture Viewer. But one of them really rocks...
This blog is safe from this because I am not so stupid to post a "virus" on my blog. Other sites like crack sites such as crackzc.ws however, have planted their website with this bug so when you think you're downloading a crack, you're actually gonna be getting a nasty surprise.
I've also successfully tested a cross site scripting vulnerability that works in a fully patched IE but NOT in FIREFOX.
Think the macdonalds website appearing in parts of your browser window when viewing Windows Update.
