Re: Internet Explorer flaw
I got a virus that infected Firefox & IE the other night. It was very disturbing, seeing as I've almost switched to nearly using FF full time, & got the virus through IE but it also affected FF.

Just proves nothing is prone to not getting any viruses, even the "safer" browsers like FF.

Re: Internet Explorer flaw
I received a note from our IS department about this virus today and recommended running Windows update ASAP to close the vulnerability. The message from IS seemed unusually urgent.

Probably a good idea to run windows update and get the patch.
