Subject: Windows XP Explorer Executes Arbitrary Code in Folders

http-equiv,

  If you've got a fetish for vulnerabilities in IE, then one I would
be most interested in is the fonts.  Fonts get an explicitly seperate
security option under the zone tabs, and it was the font files that
allowed exploitation around the Xbox dashboard.

  A thought for those arguing for/against MS's obligations/
responsibilities RE security and its software ... and the user's
role in this event ... consider the Xbox, as it is a Win2k cut-down
that is shipped as is, and without the means for a user to 
customise it further ...
