I.E. Patch O' the Day....

Ok...several patches. I lose count
(From the Infoworld Scoop 05/16/02)

MICROSOFT HAS RELEASED a patch that addresses six
security vulnerabilities in its Internet Explorer
browser, including a critical flaw that could allow an
attacker to run code on a client machine. The patch is
intended for Internet Explorer 5.01, Internet Explorer
5.5, and Internet Explorer 6.0.

Among the changes that are provided by the patch is a
fix that closes a vulnerability in one of Internet
Explorer's local HTML resources. One of the HTML files
shipped with Internet Explorer contains a cross-site
scripting vulnerability that could allow an attacker
to execute a script on a user's computer, Microsoft
said in a security bulletin issued Wednesday.
