    Less than 24 hours after IE7's official release Secunia reports that a redirection vulnerability has been found that affects IE7. If exploited it can disclose sensitive information, i.e. information that can used to remotely steal the victims identity.

    This same vulnerability was found in IE6 in April of this year.

    Oh dear, well I guess we had better stick to using whatever browsers we have been using for the past few years FF, Opera etc, seem to do the job.
