I have a user who *somehow* got caught in one of those websites with cascading window traps that opened up a bunch of new browser windows for him. One of those windows was a prompt to install a program with the choices YES and NO. He clicked the x in the corner instead, only to find that somehow a program had been installed into his program files dir complete with a shortcut in the start menu. I haven't seen this, but I'm wondering if it's possible for someone to defeat IE's security that easily and actually install an application. Does anyone know how this is done? Sorry I don't have any examples.
