9 July 2004, 6:42 pm ISTFiled under: Mozilla
Accoring to an article in eWeek, a security flaw in Mozilla / Firefox may allow links to run arbitrary programs on your system using the "shell:" scheme. This effects browsers only on the Windows XP and 2000 plateform.
A patch in the form of extension which blocks the shell is already available. It is highly recommended that you apply the patch (extensions).
