I tested some persistence pages using IE 5.0 for MacOS, with all scripting and ActiveX enabled and insecure. siteexperts.com failed with several JScript errors. Each control action resulted in another error. search.msn.com.mx said "Lamentablemente y por el momento", the saved results feature will not work. Please download Explorer 5.5 (at least, that's what I think it says. I can read some French & Latin, and dynamic pages don't work very well through Babelfish proxies). http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/persistence/overview.asp fails with a single JScript error. However, the workshop looks like it doesn't contain any live examples. So it seems probable (but not certain) that IE Mac is not vulnerable. Could someone provide other URLs that I might test? -- Francis Uy, Web Coordinator http://www.jhu.edu/gifted/cde/ 410-516-0162
