I have seen/heard of  his before and people compained about it in the UK
newsgroups several months (4ish) ago. I saw an actual article about it
roughly a month ago and thought about posting it here.

It only comes to show how fragile the browser is. Although I have not read
any of the articles in depth, I can imagine that a good kernel would never
allow this. How can an actual browser be /injected/ with data? What would
be the purpose of allowing this? It's the equivalent of me stashing my
laundry in somebody else's apartment, coming back days later to find that
it was washed by accident.
