The government of Germany has issued a warning to their citizens asking them to use alternatives to Internet Explorer because of a security issue that has been discovered over the weekend.<\/p>\n
Germany’s Internet Explorer users have been urged to use alternative browsers like Firefox<\/a> or Chrome<\/a> until a patch is issued by Microsoft. <\/p>\n Microsoft is currently working on a patch and asks users to install the latest version of their Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit<\/a> as a temporary measure until this patch is released.<\/p>\n I personally use Firefox to browse and Spybot’s Search & Destroy<\/a> immunity function, which instructs all of the browsers to block problematic sites. But I’ve turned Spybot’s resident “SDHelper” and “Teatimer” off to avoid conflicts with my security software.<\/p>\n
