    A free personal edition of OverflowGuard for Windows NT4, 2000, XP, and 2003
    has been released. The OverflowGuard Personal Edition
    protects Internet Explorer and all Active-X controls it uses from stack
    buffer overflow exploits. The protection is provided by making the stack
    non-executable. You can download this free tool from
    http://www.datasecuritysoftware.com .

    The OverflowGuard Personal Edition targets stack buffer overflows like the
    one announced August 20th, 2003 in the BR549.DLL Active-X control.
    The link to the Microsoft bug information is
