A serious bug has been found in Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0/3.01 for
Windows95 and WindowsNT users.
The nature of the bug is such that clever Internet hackers can set up a web
page that sends commands to your computer. Thus casual web browsing to
random sites could result in file corruption or other damage to your
computer, including having your hard drive erased.
Email, USENET, and browsing popular Internet sites (like Yahoo, etc) are
perfectly fine.
An update is available. For more information, check out the Microsoft site at

Macintosh users are unaffected.
