A real joy for virus writers
""Method and apparatus for writing a Windows application
in HTML" (Hypertext Markup Language), describes
Microsoft's way of opening up HTML applications in a
window free of navigation and other interface elements,
known as "chrome," and browser security restrictions."

So they will be able to bypass the joke called MS security
completely now. Now even "patches" won't be able to stop
the crackers. Oh what joyus days are ahead for the crackers
of the world, MS is about to remove the back wall of the
house.
