Oh no, it looks like Microsoft seems to be having more issues within their internet program Internet Explorer. Microsoft went on a public announcement to warned personnel's about the new opening within their program. This opening is allowing Malicious programs to enter within your computer with just a push of a button. It may be a surprised to you of what button it is.... your F1 key.
It seems that the only OS that are in harm's way would be Windows 2000, XP, and server 2003 based systems. The problem is in the Visual Basic Scripting which interacts with the 'Help Files' program. Microsoft said that the Malicious web site would show a Dialog box that would prompt you to hit your F1 key, which will install malware on your computer therefore corrupting it. Microsoft have put out information to retain from hitting your F1 key, and has asked all personnel's that have the older OS to place their Local Internet security zone settings to "High" to block ActiveX Controls and Active Scripting. They have also put out to have your IE to prompt you before running any Active Scripting or just to disable the active Scripting all together.
Seems like Malicious programs are getting stronger and crafter by the minute. Which means more security prep for Microsoft to worry about. It doesn't seem like there will be a security patch put out for the older OS, but Microsoft has information on their website to help within the situation. Although Windows Server 2003 will be provided with a service patch to take care of this minor issue.
