A critical windows xp system flaw was exposed today. There is a massive bug in the kernal which allows a website to execute drive commands (copy, delete, deltree, etc) through the simple click of a url. These url's can even be sent via email, and can be executed just by browsing the mail (not even opening it). If you do have Windows XP, I urge you IMMEDIATELY to patch it to SP1. This flaw is beyond insane as this video will show you.
