Microsoft Fixes Browser Flaws as Worms Spread | |
|
||
| Time: 03:40 EST/08:40 GMT | News Source: Yahoo News | Posted By: Alex Harris | ||

Microsoft Corp., whose Windows operating system and e-mail programs have been under siege from new computer 'worms' for at least 10 days, has released a patch for two critical vulnerabilities in its Web browser. As a result of the Internet worms -- which are viruses that spread through a network -- hundreds of thousands of PCs worldwide, at the minimum, have been infected. Many have crashed and networks have slowed to a crawl. The Internet Explorer vulnerabilities could enable an attacker to run unwanted software on a computer and even take control of it if a victim were to visit a malicious Web site, the company said on Thursday. With one of the vulnerabilities, a computer user could be vulnerable by clicking on a Web address link in an e-mail, according to Microsoft. | ||

| At work we have a golf arcade game which connects to a central server so they can do tournaments and what have you. The arcade runs on top of XP. Today I go in and there is an IE scrip error every time it tries to display the leader board info... I wonder if the worm has anything to do with that. |
