Internet Explorer Hacked Again

by Administrator

Internet Explorer has been the victim of hackers for years, so it comes as no surprise that Chinese hackers have once again successfully exploited the beleaguered browser.

The flaw could make Internet Explorer users vulnerable to having their computers hijacked and having their usernames and passwords stolen by criminals. This information is passed when a user visits an “infected” website. So far, most of these infected websites are in the Chinese language.

Of course Microsoft has already stated they have the situation under control and are looking to stop further exploits.
