Well, if the PC is used interactively, it does have an effect... but if the PC is used as just a server, strange I know (but I've seen it), there isn't a problem.... I mean, while this could cause problem, you've got to go to a site which is hosting the malicious link for this to be of even the slightest effect... unless you could trick the PC to think you are the MS troubleshooting site.... but no PC that you really 'want' to get into would be running on XP... so, if your a lil kiddy, this could be useful, but otherwise, this is just a standard, modification of a script that a system uses.....
Disclaimer... Please refer to previous disclaimers.. I drunk, so I could be talking rubbish.. or I couldn't... or rioter could be a big whore bag...
thanx.....my heart stop for a second when i tried the link out.....very good news.....
u also forget that certain e-mail programs allow the ability to put in scripts to make a window popup (with the link to delete your windows)
hmmm, almost like doing deltree or del from anywhere in the world or locally and not even having to do anything but put a link to it somewhere
another reason to use any browser other than internet explorer (i tried it with opera and it didnt work)
/me removes anything to do with IE so i wont 'accidentally' run it
actually it works w. certain versions of Mozilla as well, its not just IE... it has to do with windows trying to add a help center like that but for some reason, god only knows why, it deletes files...
oh well, i wanted to buy the Acer TravelMate100 TabletPC with WindowsXP Tablet PC Version, but i guess im not going to until this bug is fixed.... im staying with Linux for a little bit now.
LOL, sorry i had to point that out....Quote:
