>From http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,,1617045,00.asp:

"Analysts at NetSec Inc., a managed security services provider, began seeing
indications
of the compromises early Thursday morning and have since seen a large number
of
identical attacks on their customers' networks. The attack uses a novel
vector: embedded
code hidden in graphics on Web pages... NetSec officials said the attack
seems to
exploit a vulnerability in Internet Explorer."
