  • Microsoft Sounds Computer Security Alarm

    Microsoft has warned of flawed software in IE that hackers can exploit to take over some computers

    Microsoft has warned of flawed software in Internet Explorer that hackers can exploit to take over some computers.

    The company says that vulnerability was found in a programme used in the popular web browser to play video on computers running Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 operating systems.

    Microsoft says that hackers can take advantage of the vulnerability when internet users visit websites that have been booby trapped with malicious code. Unsuspecting computer users may get emails enticing them to visit hazardous websites.
