[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 760601, member: 32260"] Yes. The list is based on the Excubits Bouncer blacklist. But, the crucial thing is disallowing the possibility of running the exploit or any malicious code. If not, then there is always the possibility to harm something. For example, the VBA Macro in malicious document (template) can use Scripting API for WMI. The exploit can use COM API for WMI, etc. Those possibilities are not common, because of the popularity and effectiveness, of scripts and scriptlets. [/QUOTE]
