This might not be news, so move please if necessary.
We got a huge warning at work today about this and cautioning us NOT to use IE until all the patches have been applied. I guess the breach mostly involves Chinese gaming sites. Install your updates. IE7 security update available. (in case some people do manual updates)

Microsoft have now released a patch for this which you can get either through Windows Update or via this page
