A New Security Issue in Safari for Windows, NOT the "Blended Threat" Described in Microsoft Security Advisory 953818

Safari for Windows can download a fake icon(Shorcut dot LNK file) to Desktop. Then user might launch it because the icon can look legitimate. This results in command execution, which is as dangerous as remote code execution.

A mitigating factor is Safari's "Downloads" window will pop up and it shows the downloaded icon(Shorcut dot LNK file) - both its name and its look and the arrow(symbol of Shorcut dot LNK file). So user is well informed regarding it as Safari downloads it.

Please note this issue is NOT the "blended threat" described in Microsoft Security Advisory 953818 which Aviv Raff is working on with Microsoft.

I understand that FICO 08 will weigh the account balances more heavily than the previous FICO versions. It use to be a 30% weight – but now it is more.
