MySpace.com + IE Flaw + Known Exploit = Chaos

It appears Internet Explorer is again being exploited by evil Windows Metafile (.WMF) images. Worse, these images reside on MySpace.com with some 50+ million users. This exploit quickly follows the most recent Microsoft Update forcing drastic action from someone.At out-of-cycle patch from Microsoft or a third-party fix from a two-person shop in Guyana all works for me. Until a fix appears use an alternative browser such as Opera or Firefox.
