COMMAND

    ActiveX

SYSTEMS AFFECTED

    And who runs ActiveX?

PROBLEM

    There is a new expliot for active X at:

        http://www.network-security.com/activex/

    This is a very interesting hole since this is the first time  that
    someone actually published the  source code for examination.   The
    code was  stolen by  maglite from  a recent  2600 meeting from the
    author, a dude named Toby.

SOLUTION

    Disabled  all  ActiveX  scripts,  controls,  and  plug-ins on your
    browser. Then when you're certain  that a site is safe,  turn them
    on ONLY while  surfing that site  - and turn  them back off  again
    when you're done. Do the same thing for Java and Javascript too.
