Latest IE Security Threat

An IT article is publicizing a remote hole in Microsoft Internet Explorer that can be allegedly used to execute arbitrary code. The latest virus definition update for McAfee VirusScan prevents the proof of concept page at computerterrorism.com from executing the payload right after Internet Explorer crashes, but systems without third-party security products may be vulnerable. I applaud Pearson of computerterrorism.com for recognizing the memory location of code that Internet Exporer fails to execute and its potential for exploitation.
