From Microsoft : This update resolves the ""Incorrect VBScript Handling in Internet Explorer can Allow Web Pages to Read Local Files"" security vulnerability in Internet Explorer, and is discussed in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS02-009. Download now to prevent a malicious user from using an unauthorized Web site to read the contents of files on your local computer.
