Just for your information: We released an advisory regarding the WMF 0day tonight. You can find it here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/advisory/912840.mspx

What a bunch of grabage!!!! All it says is that microsoft has heard that there might possibly be a couple of machines that might somehow be vulnerable to a slight graphics vulnerability etc... Instead there should be a strong warning that this has been confirmed and that machines are droping like a flok of birds with the flu. And the workarounds section is laughable - it's cut and paste from some security marketing site. Not one of the items there will make my machine any safer. The exploit is out 2 days already - is it so hard to give some initial guidance - like don't run as admin etc.. I am sure MSRC is working hard yada yada.. no sleep yada yada... Isn't there one person there who can develop some emergency procedures so that people know how to defend themselves. I have defended myself by making sure that everyone uses Firefox (for whatever reason - it might be secure by mis take - but it is still secure) Also - are the known bad sites (which I persume are found by this monkey bot thingy) being added to the msn pphisihg filter - they might be phising site per say - but your just as fried by just surfing the sites.
There are two workarounds that do work: 1. DEP 2. Unregister the Un-register the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer (Shimgvw.dll) on Windows XP Service Pack 1; Windows XP Service Pack 2; Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 To un-register Shimgvw.dll, follow these steps: 1. Click Start, click Run, type "regsvr32 -u %windir%\system32\shimgvw.dll" (without the quotation marks), and then click OK. 2. A dialog box appears to confirm that the un-registration process has succeeded. Click OK to close the dialog box. Impact of Workaround: The Windows Picture and Fax Viewer will no longer be started when users click on a link to an image type that is associated with the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. To undo this change, re-register Shimgvw.dll by following the above steps. Replace the text in Step 1 with “regsvr32 %windir%\system32\shimgvw.dll” (without the quotation marks).
