IE 6 and 7 hit by hack attack code

,----[ Quote ]
| According to Symantec, which has quickly 
| tested the exploit code that appeared on the 
| Bugtraq list at insecure.org, the code as it 
| stands is not 100% reliable but the security 
| researchers expect that a âfully-functional 
| reliable exploit will be available in the 
| near futureâ. And that means exploit code 
| that will enable websites to be infected, 
| and any IE6 and 7 users with JavaScript 
| enabled to be compromised.

New Attack Fells Internet Explorer

,----[ Quote ]
| The code was posted Friday to the Bugtraq 
| mailing list by an unidentified hacker. 
| According to security vendor Symantec, the 
| code does not always work properly, but it 
| could be used to install unauthorized 
| software on a victim's computer.
