SAN FRANCISCO -- Microsoft says a security flaw in its Internet Explorer browser played a role in the recent computer attacks against Google and at least 20 other companies.
In a Thursday alert confirming the weakness, Microsoft ( MSFT - news - people ) said the security hole can be closed by setting browser's Internet security zone to "high." The world's largest software maker may also issue an update to fix the problem.
