Slashdot: Open Source IE Patch available

Slashdot is reporting that an Open Source firm has released a patch for IE to fix the URL obsfucation problem.

I think it's great, and ironic. However, I wouldn't want to try to support a large installation of IE browsers with a patch from another company, even if it is open source.

So for now, get Firebird and use that for browsing, especially any site you don't trust 100%.
