Congrats Piru, I guess.  Is it your job to find these kinds of security holes for another company, or do you do it just for kicks?

Does this mean that I need to rush to Paypal and transfer my positive balance in it entirety to my bank account, or can I feel safe that I can keep a few bucks there to pay for an odd Amiga game here and there on eBay?

It means don't EVER use IE!!! With AVG pro and Firefox you can be fairly safe. Not totally, but fairly.
 


I have not used IE for years.  It is FireFox, Avast and Sunbelt Personal Firewall for me.  I would not depend on any Microsoft security programs for anything.
