Has anyone applied the changes to Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.13IC as advised
in this alert? It appears someone has managed to exploit a vulnerability in
Microsoft Video ActiveX Control. Though the advisory states it is not
necessary for the operation of IE 7 & below, some websites especially game
sites rely on it. The file msvidctl.dll is the target of the attack. The
workaround suggests disabling all DirectX scripting within IE 7 until a patch
is developed. Would it be OK to enable DirectX scripting while in a gamesite
and then disabling it when on the web?
