IE is just itself a security flaw.....
Install either Opera Browser, Google Chrome or FireFox, they all work MUCH better and dont have the shocking holes that IE does.0 -
In fairness, Firefox et al are probably as hole-ridden as IE, it's just not worth the hackers' efforts to try to exploit them while IE has such market dominance.
Just as we're starting to see Mac viruses, that might change now that FF is catching up.I'm dreaming of a white Christmas.
But, if the white runs out, I'll drink the red.0 -
It's a security vulnerability within Windows that potentially affects Internet Explorer and at a guess, every other program that uses the Trident rendering engine (which is an awful lot).0
