Already fixed.

It really was a pretty simple bug to exploit.

Bug/Exploit Description

Exploit Source (.tgz). The posted exploit is pretty much harmless unless you know how to write Binary windows code to do what you want. Of course, there are easy ways to do that

How come lots of fixes end in .tgz or .tar extentions?

'Cause there commonly unsed in UNIX/Linux environments.

Tar files are like Zip files in windows and .tgz files are tar files that have been compressed again.

At least AOL is fixing it on their side so no upgrades are needed. One nice thing about them I guess.
