Hi guys, several ISP's are experiencing a flood of calls from customers who get failed installations of the recent IE 0day - VML - (vgx.dll). If you are getting such floods too, this is why. This is currently discussed on the botnets@ list, as raised by Cox, and I figured I will float it out here. No patch is currently available from Microsoft, workaround are available.
Ok I'll admit I've been reading less and less of this godforsaken list with each passing day, but at what point did we change the name to North American Network Tech Support Operators Group? Was the memo distributed via HTML e-mail only or something? Maybe it was redacted from the archives so I didn't see it... Seriously Gadi, what *possible* relevence could this have to network operations? -- Richard A Steenbergen <ras () e-gerbil net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC)
