New flaw not currently covered by latest automatic patches.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2501696 for the fix.

Keep yourselves safe out there, folks.

Can we avoid any Microsoft bashing in this, folks? I'd prefer people to be patched before anything happens.

Thanks for the heads-up, Raps! Downloading the patch right now.

Even though I've been surfing almost exclusively on Google Chrome for the last several months, I still sign in through MSN Explorer, and sometimes access news stories from that homepage. I'm under the impression that MSNE, and IE, overlap somewhat.

not to mention you can't run a windows computer without IE running because of the way it's tied to the OS.

that's why it's very recommended to use a different browser

Anyone know if the patch has been included in the latest set of Windows Updates?
