Microsoft on Tuesday plans to push out a fix to repair problems caused by last week's emergency cursor flaw patch.
The animated cursor vulnerability in Windows could also affect those using Firefox on Windows machines, according to one of the security researchers who discovered the flaw.
Microsoft's release of a "critical" patch on Tuesday poked holes in Vista's security promises, but security experts advise against discounting the new operating system.
Microsoft said on Sunday night in the US that it is planning to make available this week a patch for a Windows flaw that has already been used in an attack.
Security vendor eEye has issued a temporary workaround for a zero-day exploit which takes advantage of a vulnerability in the Windows cursor.
