The SANS Internet Storm Center has released a "killbit" package as a temporary workaround to help Internet Explorer users thwart malicious hacker attacks. The utility sets the "killbit" for Msddds.dll (Microsoft DDS Library Shape Control), the COM object that can cause browser crashes—and remote code execution—via specially crafted Web pages.Download:
I love firefox, but paranoid to use the 64bit beta for xp pro 64-bit edition. 64 bit IE is pretty safe because 32 bit proggies won't even install on it (also a limitation--no flash or java). Still no Microsoft hotfix???????

That's Microsoft: I MUST update (or patch) something I never use.
Why don't change that name? Internet Explored would be fine.
If you're running Win98 or later, or even Win95 or NT4 with the Active
Desktop update that came with IE4, you're running IE every time you
boot up your computer. Sad, but true.
