Until a patch is issued, MS has a work around fix.

Wow, I've seen this in action with a Trojan/Virus for the past year and a half.  Amazing that they are only addressing it now.

It was part of the reason that I switched to browsing in Firefox half the time.

"Is this a Christian perspective?

Now where in the Bible does it say if someone does something stupid you should shoot them in the face?"
