Microsoft hacked by TranceAddict users!!!!

Click on this http://www.microsoft.com link and watch the address bar

note: of course, this is just a yet-another internet-explorer bug and will work only in internet explorer. to my knowledge, no patch is available yet. read more here: http://www.secunia.com/advisories/10395/

Erm, all it did was redirect me to this page...and I'm using the mozilla kernel for my browser.

good for you. like i said it only works on internet explorers (which is like 99% of what the people use on non-technical boards)

as to what the thing does. it redirects you to this thread, correct, but in internet explorer address bar appears microsoft.com... now if i were an 3v0L_h4X0r_0wnZ_j00, i would create the copy of the login page of american express or some other website and send the email to some people asking them to login to review the terms or whatnot. the link would redirect them to my page and nothing would tell them that it's not the evol haxor's website. but that's beyond the scope. once again, ie showed to majorly suck dick.

Ahh ok I saw the full address in my url bar, that's why I was confused.

ok... i admit this is not humour or funny stuff. just worth of mentioning... to redeem myself, here's a cool animation:
