OK, we get it. Internet Explorer sux. If you haven’t done so already change over to Firefox now! This bug/hole/vulnerability is the latest in a string of problems with IE.
The flaw was reported to the company earlier this month by Jeffrey van der Stad, a 25-year-old Dutch programmer. The problem is related to the way the browser processes so-called HTA files, Microsoft said in an e-mailed statement. HTA files are associated with Web applications.
Microsoft has managed to put a muzzle on van der Stad when they had him take down details of his findings from his website. No doubt an opportunity to stall for more time. Check out his website for the latest.
