Warning:
I've upgraded to the new version of Internet Explorer (which I admit is a Beta).
However, when I try to access the Eleganza Site, it tells me that the site is trying to access my clipboard.
The full text is :
------
Do you want to allow this webpage to access your Clipboard?
If you allow this, the web page can access the Clipboard and read information that you've cut or copied recently?
Allow access Don't Allow
------
Now, I'm not a novice when it comes to HTML. But I will admit that I am a novice to JavaScript scripts.
The HTML page seems to be encoding two JavaScript scripts in the <HEAD><SCRIPT> area.
If you don't believe me, do a View->Page Source using FireFox and look at the source yourself.
The scripts seem to get called when certain images get the mouseOver or mouseOut events. For instance, on the webpage, the main image sets the window status to different values.
I wish I could read the script to tell you whether what it is doing is malicious or not. I can't. I just want to let you know to be careful. Items on your clipboard *MAY* be being compromised.
I have not gotten this warning from ANY other site that I have visited using the new Internet Explorer. This could be caused because the browser I am using is Beta and malfunctioning. On the other hand, it could be caused by the new higher security that they are supposedly putting into IE actually working. Who knows.
For your info,
