Critial Internet Explorer Bug

[Ian]

Will this patch work until the next flaw is found?

Yep, until next time

FF does have it's own problems though, I had to patch that yesterday too!

I don't think anyone will be 100% secure, but I think FF is less likely to be targeted (and Opera even less)... mainly because not as many people use them.

I just installed the supposed fix for the IE7 security problem and could not access the internet. After working with MS for about 4 hours, they informed me that the problem is the patch KB960714 is not compatible with Norton Antivirus and to turn off the Norton or don't install the patch. When I suggested that MS might think about interfacing with Norton about the MS problem, I was told to contact Norton myself and have them fix it. Ridiculous!!!!

Norton may be crap but it has worked fine for me for the past 1 years. That was not a very helpful comment.

Ok fixed for the norton fans.
