[sdw2003] [Full-disclosure] For sale - Microsoft Internet Explorer 0day

I have to agree with Levin, every time you post to this forum its negative towards Microsoft.

See:
1) Recipe for splitting the network/business    posted 9/22/09
Or
2) Word to be taken off the market   posted 8/20/09

While I'm sure noone on this forum will claim Microsoft is the best most secure software "in the world"  (cough, sarcasm, cough) I don't think we as a community needs or wants the constant " Microsoft is evil" posts.

Interesting. Your original post does not say any of that. It appears to be more of a bash against using Microsoft Windows products.

It has been my understanding for the past 10 years that this group is for assisting Windows admins and general Windows users resolve issues. That is generally in the form of a question and answer or an informative post.

It tells you there is another fatal IE flaw coming and there is not
yet any patch for it since even Microsoft does not yet know what it is
and unfortunately they are the only people who can patch it. It tells
you that you cannot rely on your usual policy of hoping that Patch
Tuesday saves you. You now have the opportunity to consider
alternative methods such as using Firefox, such as sandboxing all of
your IE use into a virtual machine which gets re-imaged with every
restart, or whatever other better ideas you can come up with.
Forewarned is forearmed!
