,----[ Quote ]
| Will browser makers patch this? Unlikely.
| Microsoft's Jerry Bryant, a general manager
| at the company's security response center,
| said the issue isn't a security
| vulnerability per se, and that Internet
| Explorer (IE) falls for the scam because
| that's the way browsers work.
|
| "Working with [Raskin's] proof-of-concept,
| as written, is expected," he said in an e-
| mail Tuesday when asked whether Microsoft
| had a fix in mind for IE.
