Microsoft: New IE flaw limited in scope
The file is put on a computer only with Microsoft's Visual Studio 2002 and certain Office XP installations, according to a Microsoft alert updated on Friday.

Visual Studio is a tool designed for developers, so most home PCs will likely not have the file. In addition, Visual Studio 2002 is an older version. People who have updated their PCs to Visual Studio 2002 Service Pack 1 are not vulnerable, Microsoft said.


Wow, this is not even an issue at all and was not even worth reporting. I think this will impact so few people that they wouldn't even know about it. It won't be worth the time to exploit it. On the bright side Microsoft is preparing a fix like they always do when something like this happens. I'm just happy to see that no matter how small the flaw, they are on the ball and take measures to correct it.
