Serious Security Problem for IE just discovered

Our previous post highlighted a recently disclosed vulnerability which exists in Microsoft Internet Explorer… and that there are currently websites hosting exploits targeting the vulnerability. Today our Vulnerability Response team would like to offer you our Security Labs' solution, which is now publicly available for download.

We call it Exploit Shield.

Exploit Shield protects against exploits both responsively and proactively. It has both shields and generic heuristics that monitor for and block suspected malicious activity. It logs attack attempts; and will also report suspicious URLs to our Real-time Protection Network¹. New shields are delivered via our automatic update channel servers.
