"George Ou writes in his blog that he found a remote exploit for the new and shiny Vista Speech Control. Specifically, websites playing soundfiles can trigger arbitrary commands. Ou reports that Microsoft confirmed the bug
and suggested as workarounds that either 'A user can turn off their
computer speakers and/or microphone'; or, 'If a user does run an audio
file that attempts to execute commands on their system, they should
close the Windows Media Player, turn off speech recognition, and
restart their computer.' Well, who didn't see that coming? (Slashdot)"
