I ran one of those email security checks that used about 20 different
hacking challenges against my Outlook XP. It did very well, but there
was a failure. The test examined whether my Outlook XP system detected
and blocked files with malformed HTA file extensions, and they got
through.

Is this a significant failure? Am I missing a patch to close that
hole?

Thanks

Mike
