New workaround for the IE CSS Exploit

[bogdan]

This vulnerability requires an attacker to provide a CSS style sheet that includes a reference to itself with an @import command. When Internet Explorer tries to load this recursive style sheet, it corrupts memory in a way that could be exploited for arbitrary code execution.

The old workaround was to enable EMET to block aspects of the known exploits from being successful.
The new one is much easier to apply. It only involves the installation of an MSI package (Microsoft "FixIt") - link
