Good thing there are billions of web pages out there instead of millions. This ruling will only affect those that use M$ specific plug-ins, applets, and scriptlets that take advantage of the Eolas code. It doesn't say anything about ActiveX in the article, if that's affected then MM will supply an update to keep Flash sites working in IE. If you build standards compliant web sites already there is nothing to worry about, however if you use Front Page there's probably another M$ "upgrade" in your future.
