I am going to do that. I have also posted it to bugtraq but I do not think he 
will post it. He has not posted any exploits I have found. :(

Yes, it can be nasty.  Send it to the folks at www.insecure.org for posting if
Netscape and Microsoft don't respond.  The only way we usually get them to move 
on
exploits is to post it where malicious people can get it and use it.

MSIE (All versions) has exploits that include stealing files and even running
arbitrary commands, all based on overflows.  The only version I know that 
avoids
these exploits is the MSIE workalike someone coded (why?) for Linux.
