Extremely Critical Bugs In Ie

[sharedholder]

More extremely critical bugs discovered in Internet Explorer
SECURITY COMPANY Secunia said there is a whole series of extremely critical bugs in IE6, that could compromise your machine if you use that browser.
The bugs also affect versions 5.01 and 5.5 of Internet Explorer.

The problems include redirection, cross scripting, and hijacking of a PC without a person being aware of the problems.

There are five problems in all, and Secunia says the solution is to either disable Active Scripting, or to use another product

You can find the description of the problems here:
