The US Government announced that there is a serious security flaw in the
Internet Explorer browser and has recommended that users switch to
another browser until it is patched.

Apparently IE versions 6 through 11 are affected.

The flaw allows hackers to take over all operations of your computer
including viewing files and getting any sensitive data.

Users of Windows XP are at a high risk because when the patch is
released it will not likely extend to XP.

Personally, I haven't used IE in years. I use Firefox and Chrome.


Microsoft probably wrote the virus, they are trying everything to get
folks off of XP...
