Windows Scripting Engine issue
From: Chris Wysopal <weld () vulnwatch org>
Date: Wed, 19 Mar 2003 20:10:54 +0000 (GMT)

A flaw in JScript has been found that allows an attacker to run arbitrary
code if a user views a malicious web page or receives a malicious email. It
effects all versions of Windows from XP back to Windows 98 and NT 4.0.

Turning off ActiveScript protects you from the issue.
