    It would be nice to think that while fixing the previous hole
    (<IMG LOWSRC="javascript:....">), one or two of the MS/Hotmail
    security staff might have wondered "What other parameters on this and
    other tags may be similarly exploitable?".
    
    Yeah, right...
    
    I note that no browser fixes have been notified/posted yet, or is
    this a Hotmail-only hole (i.e. "expected behaviour" in the browser)?
