This security weakness comes from integrating Internet Explorer into the operating system.
This is yet another example of very poor design on the part of Microsoft. All other web browsers run perfectly well without being incorporated into the operating system and most with superior performance. Would Microsoft explain its reasonings for integrating IE into the Windows operating system?

A simple way for organisations to avaoid the security weeknesses inherent in Internet Explorer is to change to the Mozilla web browser that runs on MS Windows, Apple Mac and Linux.
