Microsoft Internet Explorer can be configured to disable the execution of script code embedded in web content. A flaw exists in Internet Explorer that may allow for script code to be executed despite this security setting. MSIE performs it's security checks when a webpage initially loads. Any script code detected is not permitted to execute. MSIE does not check all event handlers, however. Script code may still execute if embedded in web content as handlers for asynchronous events. Setting the 'Active Scripting' flag to 'Disable' will not prevent the execution of this script.
