From Microsoft:
"Microsoft is investigating new public reports of a possible vulnerability in 
Internet Explorer. We are not aware of attacks that try to use the reported 
vulnerabilities or of customer impact at this time. Microsoft is aggressively 
investigating the public reports.

The Microsoft DDS Library Shape Control (Msdds.dll) is a COM object that could, 
when called from a Web page displayed in Internet Explorer, cause Internet 
Explorer to unexpectedly exit. This condition could potentially allow remote 
code 
execution if a user visited a malicious Web site. This COM Object is not marked 
safe for scripting and is not intended for use in Internet Explorer."
