IE Vulnerability

There's some talk about a vulnerability in a fully patched version of IE6 on Windows XP SP2, but I don\'t have to worry because it doesn\'t affect IE7 Beta 2 - hurrah! Microsoft said: Customers who use IE 7 Beta 2 Preview, which was released March 20, are not affected by the "createTextRange" vulnerability. Mind you, according to Security Focus (and based on my knowledge of IE), remote attackers may exploit this issue to crash affected browsers or to execute arbitrary machine code in the context of affected users. So it can\'t do too much damage unless you're logged on with admin privileges. I\'ve also taken a quick look at a preview of Firefox 2.0 and I\'m pretty sure it doesn't deserve a major release, as there's only 3 small new features. They should have fixed most of the memory leaks too, but that still doesn\'t really deserve to be more than a 1.6 type of release.
I was reading in the paper today about the new South Park episode that pokes fun at Chef, after Isaac Hayes decided to leave the show. The voice is from clips taken from other episodes, crudely put together, and the storyline sounds quite funny.
