Yep, there's another bug in Internet Explorer and this one turns your system into a public file server. This bug gives access to your hard drive if you're running Internet Explorer. I run a different browser, I should be safe, right?
Unfortunately, IE comes with all Windows and you need it if you want to get updated. It's the only browser that the MSN website permits. Plus any application in Windows (Outlook, for example) that has to connect to the web uses at least a component of IE. So you have to wonder what else is vulnerable in Windows/Vista.
Windows is like a nasty habit, you want to stop and the only advice I have for you is do that. Stop.
