Microsoft has released a critical security update to resolve the vulnerability in Internet Explorer that attackers began targeting last week.Those using any version of Internet Explorer to browse the Web should apply the patch as soon as possible as previous workarounds suggested by Microsoft have already been bypassed by attackers. Those using Firefox, Opera, Safari, and browsers other than Internet Explorer are not vulnerable to this particular exploit.

This vulnerability allows attackers to take control of the host computer . Those who have automatic updates enabled should get it immediately .Those who do not have it enabled should download it and install it immediately ! [only for IE] .
