US-CERT on Wednesday warned (http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/zd/tc_zd/storytext/SIG=117280b27/*http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/842160) of a fresh hole in Internet Explorer that could allow attackers to take control of a PC via an HTML e-mail message or a malicious Web page. The flaw is all the more serious because exploit code has been published on public mailing lists, according to security researchers.
