New Internet Explorer exploit

New Internet Explorer exploit 06/29/2004 06:44 PM
Browser hijackers continue to be on the rise. The latest is a toolbar called ILookup. This hijacker works quickly to install unwanted software that changes the user’s homepage in addition to creating pornographic pop-up ads on the infected computer. Initially, it must have simply appeared to be “just another piece of spyware” to contend with. A Dutch security researcher read about this browser hijacker from an email he had received and decided to poke around a little to see what made it tick. As it turns out, it takes advantage of a previously unknown exploit from within Internet Explorer (Ya, there is shock). Understandably, Microsoft is quite upset about the use of this exploit. Stephen Toulouse, security program manager for Microsoft, referred to ILookup’s tactics as a criminal act. Now, I understand why Microsoft would get so angry about someone making use of Internet Explorer’s shortcomings, but it would be a lot more convincing if we began to see them actually do something to redo IE rather than simply making “quick fixes” with these patches that they keep offering through the Windows Update website. Hint, hint Microsoft.

An interesting perspective from a fellow Gnomie who believes that IE has finally had it, pure and simple. He even goes so far as to point to what the US-CERT (Computer Emergency Readiness Team) is suggesting for Internet users. “It is time for national leaders to get their heads out of the sand and recognize this threat to their [our] national and economic security, [and to begin] cooperating on a global basis to deny access…

It's hard to imagine that anyone would continue to use Internet Explorer faced as it is with such massive security issues. If it were a car rather than a browser, it would have been scrapped. But despite very good reasons for moving browsers, people still aren't. Why? There are a multitude of reasons but by far the simplest is that average Joe doesn't know what the hell browser security issues are, or even that the browser is just a piece of software used for accessing the Internet. Thanks to Microsoft's spectacular decision (causing it to fall foul of competition law) to bundle Explorer with Windows, people don't know anything of any other browser. To many people, Explorer is the Internet.

Recently, our church made the switch to a new Web hosting service that offered us a database-driven site that we can keep updated through a Web interface. Strangely enough, the Web interface operates only under Internet Explorer, although it appears to be written in PHP. I've tried using the interface with both Firefox and Konqueror. It sort of works, but I need it to really work, so I'm stuck with IE. (Maybe that's why I'm the church's unofficial Web master.) After working with the world's most popular Web browser, I wonder why so many people put up with it.
