Bookmark the page, so you can restore this function after Microsoft issues the patch. Gibson is reliable, and explains how to temporarily disable this function and re-enable it after the fix comes out.

the new vulnerability makes it possible for users to infect their computers with spyware or a virus simply by viewing a web page, e-mail or instant message that contains a contaminated image.That explains why my computer was running slower after reading about that brave/stupid teen... hmmm
