Microsoft Discloses Flaws in Business Software, Web Browser
REDMOND, Wash. (AP) -- Microsoft Corp. disclosed security flaws in several software programs Thursday, with some of the flaws rated critical for computer users.

The company said "critical" flaws in Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5 and 6.0 could allow attackers to access and run unauthorized commands on users' computers. In addition, the company said "moderate" flaws in several of Microsoft's business software programs -- including Windows XP Professional and Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 -- could potentially allow attackers to purposely crash a computer system.

Users can download fixes from the company's Web site.
