McAfee's SystemGuards ask you for confirmation before letting any program
tweak certain critical system areas. Program SystemGuards watch such things
as changes to the start-up sequence and ActiveX installations. Windows
SystemGuards monitor the HOSTS file, Task Scheduler, the WIN.INI file, and
more. And Browser SystemGuards alert you to changes to the Internet Explorer
Home Page, browser settings, and add-ins.
This may have triggered it.
After you apply security update 929123, you may be prompted by a dialog box
that requests more input about how to continue when you browse a Web site
Install the latest available cumulative security update for Internet
Explorer. This is necessary because three of the vulnerabilities that are
described in security update 929123 could allow information disclosure if a
user visits a specially-crafted Web page by using Internet Explorer. These
vulnerabilities cannot be exploited directly by using Outlook Express.
