Internet Explorer Warning: Security experts are urging Internet Explorer users to use another browser until a patch is released.
Users of all current versions of Microsoft Corp. Internet Explorer browser might be vulnerable to having their computers hijacked because of a serious security hole in the software that had yet to be fixed. The flaw lets criminals commandeer victims' machines merely by tricking them into visiting Web sites tainted with malicious programming code. As many as 10,000 sites have been compromised since last week to exploit the browser flaw, according to antivirus software maker Trend Micro Inc. Microsoft said it is investigating the flaw and is considering fixing it through an emergency software patch outside of its normal monthly updates, but declined further comment. The company is telling users to employ a series of complicated workarounds to minimize the threat. Many security experts, meanwhile, are urging Internet Explorer users to use another browser until a patch is released.
