So... IE opens firefox and runs commands on it?

Since when should your browser be allowed to open other non-associated programs on your pc?

Jeesh, the fanboys get a bug in their browser and they still find a way to blame Microsoft...

That will fix Larholm's bug, but Mozilla security strategist, Window Snyder, would not say whether or not she considered the vulnerability to be an IE or Firefox problem.

Is this lady's name for real?

1. IE is to blame, obviously.

2. This is a purely theoretical problem. I cannot imagine a situation where someone who has both FF and IE on the same computer, would be using IE.

In this particular instance both have flaws. IE should not be allowed to launch other applications and Firefox should fix their issue.
