    Internet Explorer Security Alert

    If anyone is still using it maybe it's time to change. :-\

    Users of the world's most common web browser have been advised to switch to another browser until a serious security flaw has been fixed.

    Hi Matthew,

    thanks for letting us know.
    Internet Explorer surprised me yesterday with interesting message, see attachement.
    Maybe it is Java Script related

    The message about IE problem was on the main TV news here yesterday, I think MS is not happy from such a "advertisement".
    I thought remote code execution is not so rare in browsers it is worth TV spot...

    The new Beta version of IE isn't much better too. :P

    I'm still using Google Chrome, it may not be perfect but I think it's safer than using IE.

    There is an update to the IE8 Beta today but I dont see MS making a big noise about it.

    Strange how my IE8 wants to debug any page with Java on it
