To really make these alerts effective they should post very detailed information on how to use the exploits.

That would really light a fire under their asses!

Ha ha! Yeah, that would do it. But even then, could MS issue a patch as quickly as Firefox?

Secunia has rated this vulnerability rated Extremely Critical and says that eight versions of MS Windows Server are unpatched. Does this mean that the key loggers and trojans can spread very quickly across the Internet and infect anyone using IE6, even though they have not visited a porn site? It also says that the solution for IE users is to deactivate support for Active Scripting. IE should have a NoScript extension -- easily turned off and on. :)
