    IE flaws used to spread pop-up toolbar

    This is an exploit for previously unknown IE vulnerabilities. Microsoft is considering releasing a patch before the next regularly scheduled security update. It never ends......

    IE ugh!

    I finally gave up and installed Mozilla 1.6. There is a bit of a learning curve, but after that it works ok.

    Firefox version .8 for the last few months. Makes me feel really stupid for sticking with IE for so long.
