MSIE Security Updates

Posted by pudge on Saturday July 6, 2002 @08:33AM from the except-for-the-ones-that-it-doesn't dept.

AnamanFan writes "Microsoft has released version 5.2.1 of Internet Explorer for Mac OS X. The only notes I have been able to find on the update is that it 'provides all the latest security and performance enhancements for Internet Explorer 5 for Mac OS X.' Be warned that the installer forces all other running applications to quit, but does not require a reboot and (seems) to not change your Internet browser settings, in case you're using another browser." Also released was MSIE 5.1.5 for Mac OS, which "resolves all security vulnerabilities in previous versions of Internet Explorer 5." Heh.

Too funny.... by HiredMan · 2002-07-06 15:05 · Score: 4, Funny

This was a very plate-of-shrimp moment.

I was surfing this article in OSX IE 5.2 and since I have points I moderating a comment as "funny". When I clicked the "Moderate" button IE blow up on me and want away!

Ack - started returned to the article and it died on me again. Damn... that really sucks. Anyway - third times a charm. Or maybe iCab is the charm...

=tkk

PS All M$ sekurity updates should very clearly read "fixes all KNOWN security issues" - a very important detail.
