Security Flaw Found In IE7 Beta 2

Friday February 3, 2006
Microsoft just recently released the second beta version of their Internet Explorer 7 web browser and a security flaw has already been found. A researcher has discovered that it is possible to create a denial-of-service (DoS) condition which crashes the browser and can allow an attacker to run arbitrary code on the vulnerable computer. For more information, see this article in The Register: Security glitch bites IE7 beta.
