Message-ID: <200407082133.i68LXOJ25954@pop-3.dnv.wideopenwest.com> From: mvp at joeware.net (joe) Subject: How big is the danger of IE? I'm trying to understand if your issue you are implying sarcastically in your last statement is with pulling similar functionality out of single programs and putting it into DLLs or that MS offers products to do many different things or that you can seamlessly work with documents across applications thereby more easily putting them together (instead of saying building a spreadsheet in excel working on formatting it, print it separate, then take a word doc and print it separate and then collate the sheets together).

But the IE rendering engine (read: dlls) are used by most MS programs to render HTML, which can be embedded into almost any document type. Pretty much any IE exploit will work in any of these programs as well. Isn't the whole "integrated Microsoft suite" a wonderful concept? -Eric -- arctic bears - affordable email and name services @yourdomain.com http://www.arcticbears.com _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
