I'm seeing a good number of crashes in Outlook 2007 when editing email
messages.  Most of these crashes happen when pasting HTML text which is
copied from a Web page into an HTML email message.  Makes me wonder if
these crashes can be used to run exploit code.  
 
Does HTML e-mail still run in the IE restricted zone in Outlook 2007?
What IE and Windows version are you using?
