Unofficial IE Fixes

Two separate companies have released unofficial fixes for the latest IE hole but security experts are warning people to use these fixes at your own risk. In the mean time, experts suggest that you use Microsoft’s workaround until a patch is released.

Both fixes are meant to protect Windows PCs against cyberattacks that exploit a recently disclosed IE vulnerability Microsoft has yet to provide an update for. The software maker has not endorsed either fix, saying that as a rule it doesn't recommend installing outside patches.
