A Critical Security Vulnerability Exists in Windows XP. (Surprise)
Actually, as we know, there are many, but we'll handle them one at a
time. This particular vulnerability allows the files contained in any
specified directory on your system to be deleted if you click on a
specially formed URL. This URL could appear anywhere: sent in malicious
eMail, in a chat room, in a newsgroup posting, on a malicious web page,
or even executed when your computer merely visits a malicious web page.
It is already being exploited on the Internet.

"EVERYONE using Windows XP, who has not already installed the huge (30
to 140 megabyte) Service Pack 1 — or Microsoft's subsequent patch for
this vulnerability — is at risk of having many files maliciously deleted
from their systems. PLEASE SPREAD THE NEWS of this critical Windows XP
vulnerability — and this quick and simple solution — to everyone whom
you know to be using Windows XP. If you or they have already installed
Windows XP Service Pack 1, the problem has already been cured.

Otherwise, this small, quick, and free utility will handle the job easily."
