Worms love to Explore  by Shane L at 16:05

Following on from Mani's post last month about the flaws in IE apparently there is yet another worm on the prowl..

User that will click that link will be directed to a website that will use a "long patched IE vuln" , And if you system is unpatched it will replace Media player th a malicious program that downloads the Wallon worm's main file and changes the Internet Explorer's home page to a page maintained by the virus writer.

All I can say really is dont use IE but give Mozilla a try or even Opera

Anyway you can read the full article here

I used to use mozilla, but prefer opera at the moment.


Why not register and have your say?
