I'll just wait for an official patch.
I'm very cautious when it comes to visiting websites and I don't visit a web site contining WMF images (not even trusted websites, either). And I can't be sure about the stability of unofficial patches, so I only rely on Microsoft's patches. Microsoft is working hard on securing and plugging every security holes and I appreciate that. Im not that tired on doing patching like every week or two and I understand that administrators don't want to do patching every week and two but for a month? Not for me if I want to stay on top and keeping Windows up-to-date.

For those who will ask me why don't I switch to alternative products like Linux (OS) or Firefox (browser), I have no need for it. I'm very happy with Microsoft Windows and Internet Explorer. Yet I'm security-/Internet-/computer-savvy enough to know what is going on in the Internet and what to watch out for, so I am pretty much educated.
