Microsoft warns of zero-day hole for older Windows

ANYBODY running Windows XP or earlier needs to be aware of this.

This may NOT get automatically patched as XP is out of mainstream support.

So does that only matter with Internet explorer? The article kind of made it sound that way.

Either way, Im glad I switched away from IE... sucks so bad compared to FF I cant believe I was so slow to change.

avoid pressing the F1 key when prompted by a Web site
