Either disable your Flash plug-in, or switch to another browser. MS reports disabling Flash is enough to defeat the attach.

Just don’t use IE for the time being. Try to switch to another browser like Chrome or Firefox.

Just update your IE later on today. You might also want to use a different browser.

This advisory from Microsoft on April 26 talked about increasing the security level in IE:

I’m not sure if this is related to the Adobe Flash problem mentioned earlier in the week. Adobe has already had an update since then.
