ALERT Windows IE & Outlook under Attack

[xabistuff]

Microsoft says to read all e-mail in plain text rather than HTML, and lists no help for IE. For Vista, Microsoft says that IE 7's protected mode will defend against this attack in the new OS. Outlook 2007 isn't affected because it uses Word to display e-mail by default. Until there is a fix or at least a temporary workaround, use an alternate browser such as Firefox or Opera, and turn off HTML e-mail viewing in Outlook

I think ang Outlook ra man siguro ang default view niya kay html.

If you compare it with Mozilla Thunderbird and Evolution (Linux), ilang default view kay plain text not html.

Can you give us a link to either the KB article or from a Security update bulletin? At the moment this warning means nothing without any source.

I can easily do the same thing by saying that Linux is vulnerable to a virus right now just by farting near the computer. But would you believe me w/out any valid source?

Opera is better than any...
