Users running fully patched versions of Internet Explorer are vulnerable to a new exploit in the wild that has been used to load adware onto systems whose owners did nothing more than click on a malicious Web address, according to security researchers. Secunia, a security firm, labels the problem "extremely critical." The company uses the designation for remotely exploitable vulnerabilities that can lead to system compromise, don't normally require interaction and have exploits in the wild.
