Unpatched IE Flaw Worse than Originally Thought

IThub's Security site has a pretty good description of the latest IE security hole. This vulnerability rates the rare -- but highly coveted -- "Extremely Critical" award from Secunia. We'll hold the trophy for the ceremony to be held early next year. Since it's currently unpatched on even a locked-down XP SP2 box, you may want to think about downloading Firefox or Opera (if you haven't done so already).
