Thank goodness for Protected Mode
Flaws such as this can easily be present in any browser. Good thing that IE on Vista runs in Protected Mode so that the exploit can't do much damage.

Not sure if Chrome's security model includes an equivalent of protected mode. If not, it and the other browsers would be smart to do so.
