And yet another vulerability has been found in Internet Explorer– even those with the most recent version are still at risk. See

for more details and a demonstration. It’s actually pretty scary to see www.paypal.com in the address bar and the security lock to show that it’s a secure, legitimate page when in fact it is not. The typical consumer (myself included) isn’t equipped to recognize this sort of spoofing, and instead need to have a reliable and trustworth browser like Firefox.
In other news, I’m done with finals and just about to head off to breakfast with Hailey so life is good. =)
