IE critical error in jpg processing
Or in other words: now it's not even save anymore to just look at some very common image file in Internet Explorer anymore.
Details can be found here: Buffer Overrun in JPEG Processing (GDI+) Could Allow Code Execution (833987)
Translated into normal English, this means that because microsoft can't get there screwed up code to handle jpg processing correctly, some hacker could use that to run an executable file - as in: a possibly malicious program - on the picture viewer's computer.
GREAT coding once again at Redmond! Blah!
Though then again, just one more reason to dump IE and Get Firefox!
