Actually, I've infected a server via telnet before, by echoing hex strings
to a text file, then using debug to convert to an exe.  One could just as
easily use any other executable...

@ECHO OFF>1
echo e 0100 4D 5A 90 00 03 00 00 00 04 00 00 00 FF FF 00 00>>1

Actually, against telnet you just push the console echo attacks and
kill the session.

Anybody still using IE doesn't deserve any help, any sympathy, any
support. They are deliberately setting themselves on fire -- so let
them burn.

So which browser exactly is the secure one?
