How reliable is this quick-fix ? I'm always hesitant to apply these rushed patches myself, but I've been affected by this at home and many machines at work have been too.I know the feeling, but with this one I figured the alternative was worse. I rolled the IE6 patch out to about ten XP SP2 or SP3 boxes and I haven't noticed any problems.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-MS-OutOfBand-Security-Bulletins-for-December-17-2008-21609106 Fri, 19 Dec 2008 17:49:59 EDT Re: MS Out-Of-Band Security Bulletin(s) for December 17, 2008 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-MS-OutOfBand-Security-Bulletins-for-December-17-2008-21605736 Any proof-of-concept site I can visit to test if IE has been fully secured against this vulnerability?
