Sorry, if you configure it as MS suggests, for high-security, it has
been proven to be vulnerable several times in the last year alone.
There are few things you can do to protect IE from itself when it's
the code itself that is faulty. Not all IE faults lead to direct
exposure, but enough of them in the last year have.

Proofs of concept are not the same as real world events. Any
vulnerabilites of note have been patched before real world exploits
existed.

are you Nuts? There are often times when an exploit goes public and the
patch has not been released.

Not very often and you need to visit a specially crafted web site. In reality the risk is VERY low.
