everyone knows the best official patch is firefox
umm, no firefox presents a save or open dialog box. if the user belives it to be a image he / she is intended to view, they will simply "open". thus, windows gladly passes the extention handler to WMF, game over. or, they will "save" and simply passing the mouse over the icon will trigger the exploit, again... game over _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
