    I was hoping you would explain what you mean. It is possible that having read the fine print I misunderstood or simpy missed something.

    MS describes it as a remote code execution vulnerability.

    So maybe you could explain why they are wrong.

    Hopefully being able to do that without being insulting is within the apparently limited scope of your social interaction ability?

    The ability to trigger arbitrary code execution (ACE) over a network (especially via a wide-area network such as the Internet) is often referred to as remote code execution (RCE or RCX). (Wikipedia)

    You could be inadvertently right tho. It can mean any of those depending in the case.

    If I click on a result from a search engine and I get confronted by a similarly confusing dialog I never know which opton to take.

    So recently I have been choosing to just close the tab...

    It would be nice to have a R-click menu option to block that domain from the results of future searches.Is there an add-on for that?

    All that little X means is "Hide this dialog"!

    It has no bearing on the contents of that dialog.
