"While the public exploit only targets Internet Explorer 6 without DEP (Data 
Execution Prevention), VUPEN Security has confirmed reliable code execution

Enabling DEP will only protect your systems from public exploits, however, 
disabling JavaScript is the only way to prevent DEP bypass attacks."
