This flaw gets around the UAC and allows the attacker to impersonate the system account. However, it still appears that you'd need to introduce code to exploit this. They would need to send you a file of some sort and AV software should eventually be able to pick this stuff up. It's still a pretty spooky flaw.

Another day, another security issue involving outdated systems. Perhaps I should stop using IE6 on my laptop too?

Sometimes I wish they would force updates on pcs that are using dated browsers.
I wouldn't have ie6 anymore if I didn't think I still needed make some sites compatible for it.. I hate that browser.
