Microsoft has announced that all current versions of Internet Explorer are currently at risk of being hacked due to a flaw in the programme.
It is now known that the web browser, used by 900 million people across the globe, requires a software patch in order to defend against attack while Microsoft prepares a longer term fix, a massive security slip up by the firm.
A security advisory announcement was made on Friday highlighting scripting vulnerabilities affecting all versions of Windows.
It is not however thought that there has been any breaches of security so far: “The main impact of the vulnerability is unintended information disclosure,” said Angela Gunn, a Microsoft representative.

I for one, hope that is a photo of Bill’s secretary.
What really bugs me about IE, is that there are STILL websites (some Microsoft sites included) that only work when a IE browser is interfacing them. And one of them I frequent, keeps telling me that my Firefox browser isn’t up-to-date enough, to properly work there. But IE6 always works there. And no Firefox version I tried has. So I always have to use the IE Tab add-on, of FF, to trick it. Some sites are specifically designed to refuse to load, if an IE header isn’t detected. But after fooling it with IE Tab, you can switch rendering right back to standard FF. And all is fine. Why? Why, why, why?! Is there some secret financial incentive, to program websites this way?
IE is so irrelevant that a bimbo NEEDS to be displayed to get any story attention.
Aw come on Dallas, you know you’d make soup out of her dirty underwear.
When did that chick in the photo break up with Firefox?
#24 Sure, I’d do her … and her brother!
