Ryan Naraine from eWeek put up a neat article about Microsoft researchers experimenting with an automatic code zapper for the company’s Internet Explorer Web browser.

Researchers at the Redmond, Wash., company have completed work on a prototype framework called BrowserShield that promises to allow IE to intercept and remove, on the fly, malicious code hidden on Web pages, instead showing users safe equivalents of those pages.
