IMLSP and cross-site scripting (XSS)
Posted: Wed Apr 06, 2011 1:34 pm
For the second time in two days, Internet Explorer 8 (on Windows XP SP3) has displayed at the top of my window a security message about cross-site scripting (XSS) when I clicked on a link to IMLSP in a Google results page: "Internet Explorer has modified this page to help prevent cross-site scripting". The page nevertheless seems to display correctly. This never happened before and I have not changed any of the settings on my computer or in IE. The help file says that it is a filter that "can help prevent one website from adding script code to another website".
