A new flaw has been found in Internet Explorer that allows criminals to take control of people's computers and steal passwords and it's present in all versions of Internet Explorer! Now may be a really good time to switch to Firefox, Google Chrome, or another browser if you haven't done so already because the other browsers aren't vulnerable to this!

Read full article at:Microsoft is continuing its investigation of public reports of attacks against a new vulnerability in Internet Explorer," said the firm in a security advisory alert about the flaw.
Microsoft says it has detected attacks against IE 7.0 but said the "underlying vulnerability" was present in all versions of the browser.
Other browsers, such as Firefox, Opera, Chrome, Safari, are not vulnerable to the flaw Microsoft has identified.
