[quote]Microsoft published a security advisory today warning its customers that a vulnerability in all versions of Internet Explorer (6 through 11) could let hackers gain full user permissions over your computer, allowing them to install programs, view and delete data, and much more simply by visiting a website.
That's not good, but at least anyone using Internet Explorer on a modern version of Windows will likely see a patch within a couple weeks' time. [/quote]

All Internet Explorer users, regardless of operating system, have a few choices for avoiding this exploit. [/quote]
Either disable Flash or switch to a new browser until a patch hits.

Great. Now I just have to find a way to convince my family that IE is horrible and that they should use Firefox or Chrome.
