Zero-Day Exploit - Now is a good time to be scared!

If you're concerned about the confidentiality of information you enter on the Internet, take a few minutes and read these articles:

Now, go back and look closely at the dates. The report of the vulnerability was on June 24, 2004. The Microsoft information on the vulnerability was on June 24, 2004. Subtract those 2 dates to get the difference and you get ZERO!

Now is a good time to be scared!

There's some help for IE users worried about last month's Download.Ject security scare, but you are going to have to wait for a comprehensive fix.

Now is a good time to be really scared!
