Thanks again to Thomas who let me know theres also an updated version of MSN Messenger available for Windows users that includes the patch for the unchecked buffer in chat control. (This does not protect you from MSN Crashing tools)
Fixed in this version:
- Unchecked Buffer in Gopher Protocol Handler Can Run Code of Attacker"s Choice (Q323889)
- Unchecked Buffer in MSN Chat Control Can Lead to Code Execution (Q321661)
Windows Messenger is easy to use, delivers great voice and video quality, and enables cool, new innovation with lots of other products and services you use every day. It is part of Windows XP Professional and Windows XP Home Edition.
