I used spybot and found out that Microsoft put a registry entry called DSO Exploit: HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones\0\1004=W=3 Spybot referred me to a website called www.greymagic.com/security/advisories/gm001_ie. Greymagic gave me some suggestions as to how to how to change registry information but I could not find the right registry information to make changes. I do not like to mess with the registry anyway for fear of messing up. Greymagic said the only real solution should come in the form of a patch from Microsoft. I do not use Internet Explorer browser. I use Netscape 7. I did set Internet Explorer Home page to: (about blank) and as long as I don't browse to any other websites I can close IE Browser. Other wise I have to use ctrl-alt-delete which brings up windows task manager and I can close IE Browser with Task Manager.
