Cybercrooks already exploiting Vista widely
Cybercrooks had been using a "critical" Windows vulnerability to attack Windows PCs, including those running Vista.
Microsoft had to rush out a patch, breaking its normal patch cycle. Microsoft's patch is causing trouble for some users because it is not compatible with software that runs audio and networking components from Realtek Semiconductor.
Mozilla is looking at delivering its own remedy for the cursor flaw. The Firefox work-around could come as a welcome option to those users who, for whatever reason, don't install Microsoft's fix.
IMO: Here's one reader's workaround for Mozilla .. "..use IE 7 for the time being".
