Maybe I'm getting to these sites after they've been cleaned up, or maybe
I'm just missing it, but what exactly are they exploiting and how? I don't
see anything that looks like the recent announced Firefox URI problems (no
firefoxurl: URIs, no %00 or double-quotes in URIs). One site did try to
download a probably-malicious "codec.exe", but that was a simple
"location=" trick that works on any browser (a save dialog came up).
