ByteCrusher Verifies WindowZones Protects PC Users from Latest Internet Explorer Security Flaw at Day Zero
WindowZones keeps users of IE safe from the latest VML exploits. Innovative approach to securing Windows protects users from day zero.
Redmond, WA (PRWEB) September 21, 2006 -– ByteCrusher today confirmed that the beta version of its innovative WindowZones security application protects users of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer from being harmed as a result of a new zero day attack.
The new zero day attack was first identified in the wild on September 18th but has previously been in place for an unknown amount of time. Exploits of this recently discovered vulnerability in IE are being used to, among other things, install spyware onto the users’ personal computers. Many users of IE may have already been exposed unknowingly. It is important for users to understand that even though such exploits are primarily being hosted today by pornographic websites, they may propagate to mainstream websites at any time. Using WindowZones to run IE in the SafeZone will protect users at day zero and beyond.
WindowZones is a paradigm-shifting security application that dramatically reduces the infection opportunity from exploits such as this most recent IE critical flaw. WindowZones works in conjunction with your anti-virus and anti-spyware defenses to protect your computer in ways that conventional anti-spyware and anti-virus solutions simply cannot do. Because WindowZones works by proactively giving applications only the rights they need to run, there are no delays in protection and there are no signature updates required. Users get a first – and last – line of defense simply by using WindowZones, virtually eliminating zero-day attacks.
WindowZones is currently in beta and is available for beta download from http://www.windowzones.com. The final release is expected in October 2006.
