Earlier this week, the Homeland Security reported that there is a bug on Internet Explorer. This bug was discovered by FireEye, a security software company. The security flaw on Internet Explorer will allow hackers to exploit your system or computer. Once your Internet Explorer is exploited the hackers will be able to control your computer and get any information that is save on it. This hackers call themselves "Operation Clandestine Fox." They said that the work around is to disable Adobe Flash Player on your Internet Explorer. Earlier today NBC confirmed that the Internet Explorer security flaw is still not fixed. Although Adobe release a patch or an update, this updates is just for the the Flash bug that is actively used to attack visitors of Syrian Government website.
Some users were just confused because FireEye said on Friday that disabling the Adobe Flash Player will prevent the hackers from getting into the users computer, it will not work when Adobe Flash is disabled. Microsoft is still fixing the bug so be cautious and not to use Internet Explorer until the security flaw will have a patch or update.
