Re: Microsoft Security Advisory (935423) Vulnerability in Window

Wow! In one little thread two contradictory assertions:

"Alternative browsers such as Firefox and Opera do not appear to be vulnerable to the attack." »www.vnunet.com/vnunet/news/21868···-attacks

"Mozilla Firefox uses the same underlying Windows code for processing ANI files, and can be exploited similarly to Internet Explorer" »www.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/···536.html

Since Firefox most assuredly calls upon the Windows API, I will err on the side of caution.
