If you run Windows 2000 you should be downloading this patch urgently (Start/Windows Update).

This update resolves the \"Java Applet Can Redirect Browser Traffic\" security vulnerability in the Microsoft virtual machine (Microsoft VM) on Windows 2000, and is discussed in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS02-013. Download now to prevent a maliciously crafted Java program (\"applet\") from silently re-routing all browser traffic to the applet’s host without the user’s knowledge.
