Mozilla applications render web pages incrementally – they display what’s been received of a page before the entire page has been downloaded. Since the start of a web page normally doesn’t have much useful information to display, Mozilla applications will wait a short interval before first rendering a page: by default, Firefox doesn’t try to render a web page for 250 milliseconds while it’s waiting for data.

Microsoft Corp. confirmed today that Windows, including Vista, contains a critical unpatched vulnerability that can be used by attackers to usurp PCs when users surf to malicious sites.
In a security advisory posted this morning, Microsoft’s Security Response (MSRC) team acknowledged a bug in Windows’ animated cursor, a component that lets developers show a short animation at the mouse pointer’s location. Animated cursor files typically use the .ani extension, but the MSRC warned that hackers might disguise malicious animated cursors with other extensions. The SANS Institute, in fact, said it had received reports of in-the-wild exploits using files renamed to .jpg. Read More»
