As most of you know, once a week I send out the Focus-MS newsletter. This
newsletter contains a summary of Microsoft-related security news and
information from the past week, including a brief description of newly
discovered Microsoft-related vulnerabilities.
It seems that the description of one of these vulnerabilities in this
week's newsletter also contained sample proof-of-concept code.
Unfortunately, this proof-of-concept code may in some cases be detected by
antivirus products. The vulnerability in question is described at
<http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9658>.
Let me assure you, there is not a virus in these messages and they are not
infected in any way. Sorry for any confusion/problems/concerns this may
have caused. If you have any further questions or comments, please feel
free to send them to me directly.
