        Hi Aviv,
        Not sure what your issue is.  This has been tested on many people, and
    it works on everyone.  Maybe its your pop up blocker?  Maybe its your AVP?
        This exploit is on Securityfocus and k-otik as they tested as well.
    Http equiv verified before any post was made to FD.
        In either case we did not code around pop up blockers nor around known
    virus strings.  This PoC is not for blackhats kiddies.

          Hi,
          Somehow the POC does not work on both of my WinXPSP2 pro boxes.
          Both are fully patched, but one is hardened and the other is after a
    clean install.
          After running the POC, the IE opens the Help window, but then freezes
    for a couple of minutes.
          After IE stops freezing, there is no Microsoft Office.hta on the
    startup folder.
          And yes, I'm running this on an Administrator account.
          Can anyone else confirm this?

          Microsoft Internet Explorer XP SP2 Fully Automated Remote Compromise
          Dec, 21 2004
          Vulnerable
          ----------
          - Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0
          - Microsoft Windows XP Pro SP2
          - Microsoft Windows XP Home SP2
          Not Tested
          ------------------------
          - Microsoft Windows 98
          - Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.x
          - Microsoft Windows 2003 Server
          Severity
          ---------
          Critical - Remote code execution, no user intervention
          Proof of Concept?

          - http://freehost07.websamba.com/greyhats/sp2rc.htm
          - If an error is shown, press OK. This is normal.
          - Notice in your startup menu a new file called Microsoft Office.hta.
    When run, this file will download and launch a harmless executable (which
    includes a pretty neat fire animation)
