I'm protected, but I feel sorry for others that aren't. Here's what Norton has to say about it: JS.Exception.Exploit.B is an exploit which allows Java ****s to run arbitrary code on unpatched systems. In many cases, the ** may perform simple actions, such as changing your Internet Explorer home page. It can also be programmed to run code to perform a mass mailing. It is an obfuscated version of JS.Exception.Exploit. The structure of the code is specific and involves the illegal use of the <****> tag. The exploit was published in at least one security forum. More information about this vulnerability is available at the Microsoft Technet site: www.microsoft.com/technet...00-075.asp Microsoft has released a patch that closes the security vulnerability exploit. You can download the patch from the following Microsoft site: www.microsoft.com/technet...00-081.asp
