Windows 2000/2003/9x/XP / Freeware / 779 downloads

A critical vulnerability has been found in Internet Explorer which is caused due to a boundary error in the handling of certain attributes in the IFRAME, FRAME, and EMBED HTML tags. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via a malicious HTML document containing overly long strings in the "SRC" and "NAME" attributes of the IFRAME tag. The vulnerability may also affect program using IE ActiveX component, such as Outlook, Outlook Express, MyIE2 etc. when browse web pages and read HTML format mails. It affects Internet Explorer 6.0 on Windows XP SP1 (fully patched) and Internet Explorer 6.0 on Windows 2000 (fully patched). Windows XP SP2 Users don't have this problem.

    I would like to know why anywone would want anything to do with iesecure. It has hijacked my pc, changed my webpage. I have tried every program I know to remove it. Nothing works. Programs like this should never be allowed to be developed. It is black mail in its worst form. I could say more but I doubt anyone even cares!!!!

    Sorlag, looks who is calling the kettle black, in all your ripping on Josh P. you have yet to review the product your kvetching about others referring to firefox of. At least posted something relevant to the subject asking "why bother with making IE secure" I would have to add though making IE secure should be a MAJOR task of Microsoft currently with the majority share of corporations utilizing the built in browser by default for both inter and intranet applications and information share, but until then I do agree with Josh P. just use a product like firefox until Microsoft or others can fix the errors within. So perhaps Sorlag, it is YOU that should think first before spouting off about what others do if you are NOT going to do it yourself...

    Why try to make an insecure browser secure? There is no way to do that that will work all the time, why not just switch to a browser that is secure without any adons! Like Firefox!
