Another Serious MSIE Hole

Funny this should come out now, eh? I'm busy moving any client that still uses IE (or Outlook) to Mozilla 1.6.

The really scary thing about this one is that it looks like a pretty deep design flaw - nobody's sure that Microsoft can fix it, short of a complete redesign.

... another new security hole that allows links to executable files to appear to be any other type of file, such as text or pdf.
