From
ComputerWorld October 19, 2000 Georgi Guninski, a Bulgarian computer-bug hunter, has found a hole in Internet Explorer 5.05 and Outlook Express 5.01 that allows attackers to gain read-only access to remote systems by sending an HTML e-mail with Java code loaded through an object tag, or inviting a user to view a Web site with the code embedded there.
