Reason 642 to stop using Internet Explorer

PC World.com is reporting...
Hackers are intensifying their attacks on Internet Explorer users, pressuring Microsoft to patch a critical flaw in the software ahead of its regularly scheduled October 10 security update.

On Sunday, hackers released sample code showing how to exploit the Internext Explorer flaw on a fully patched version of Windows XP, a move that security experts believe will step up the attacks. Criminals have been taking advantage of a previously unknown vulnerability in cPanel software, widely used by Web hosting providers, to install the Internet Explorer malware on Web servers.
