I have a Desktop link to my IE TIF folder. All of a sudden, when I click on
it, I get the message: "This page contains an unspecified potential security
flaw. Would you like to continue?"
I've never seen this before.
It continues after I cleared the cache, deleted the cookies, and cleared the
history.
I've run virus scan, Spybot, and Ad-aware. All came up clean.
Could this be related to the most recent batch of Windows Security Updates,
installed last night?
What advice can anyone offer?
Thanks for any help.
 
I too have started to get the same message. It started right after i
downloaded and installed the 12 security fixes that Microsoft released
yesterday(8/8). I have had the same experience as JD in that it continues to
appear after clearing cookies etc. I have ran a scan with McAfee Internet
Security Suite with zero results.
 
Perhaps a little further information would help. The message is coming up in
a blue box, "Internet Explorer" at the top. I am only getting the message
when I click on my "temporary internet files folder"
 
I guess I can join the crowd. This did not start for me until I installed the
latest round of "fixes" from M$. Looks like a flaw in their updates :-(
 
Let's keep hoping for a helpful response. We're not alone.
Meanwhile, we might fare better at the updates newsgroup:
