A security researcher has published information showing that a previously unknown design flaw in Microsoft's Internet Explorer could be used by malicious Web sites to steal sensitive information from IE users' computers. Israeli hacker Matan Gillon says he's discovered that an unpatched security hole in IE could allow a Web site to see files on the visitor's computer that store data about the user's relationship with other Web sites. In a detailed analysis published on his Web site, Gillon demonstrates how the hack could be leveraged to steal data on the victim's machine indexed by Google Desktop Search, a free program that allows users to quickly find a variety of files on their computers.

Gillon's research shows that if an IE user is already logged on to a Web-based service
