[Full-disclosure] Someone wasted a nice bug on spyware...



In reference to:
http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/420288/30/0/threaded

I ported the exploit to the Metasploit Framework in case anyone wants to
test it without installing a thousand spyware apps...

Available from 'msfupdate' for MSF users, or in the 2.5 snapshot:

--http://metasploit.com/projects/Framework/exploits.html#ie_xp_pfv_metafile
--http://metasploit.com/tools/framework-2.5-snapshot.tar.gz

Tested on Win XP SP1/SP2 and Windows 2003 SP0/SP1.
