SUMMARY

The May 15, 2002, Cumulative Patch for Internet Explorer includes an enhancement of the Restricted Sites zone in Internet Explorer. After the update is applied, Internet Explorer blocks all frames in the Restricted Sites zone.

Because Microsoft Outlook Express 6, Microsoft Outlook 98, Microsoft Outlook 2000 with the Outlook E-Mail Security Update, and Microsoft Outlook 2002 all read mail in the Restricted Sites zone by default, this patch, by extension, blocks frames and IFRAMES in those products also.

Customers who use Microsoft Outlook Express 5, Outlook 98, or Outlook 2000 without the Outlook E-Mail Security Update who read mail in the Restricted Sites zone and who apply this patch also have frames and IFRAMES blocked in those products.

Any Web sites that users place in the Restricted Sites zone can no longer use frames or IFRAMES.
