I have no idea how to do this. And if I had, I still wouldn't tell you.

And there's a simple reason: Showing a way to test for the presence of this vulnerability would inevitably mean showing (or at least hinting) a way to exploit it. And I hope nobody would be careless enough to do that in public.

From a user's point of view: Have the appropriate security patch installed ASAP, and you should be okay. As a courtesy, MS even provides it for XP, though that was supposed to have reached its ultimate end of life a month ago.

Linuxquestions is a Linux user forum. Forums are about interacting with your fellow forum members. You asked about this already here and without ever responding. Instead you decided to basically post a duplicate thread. That is the wrong way to deal with this.

No you don't. You need to test machines for the update. See Microsoft Security Advisory 2963983: http://blogs.technet.com/b/srd/archi...3-ie-0day.aspx and https://technet.microsoft.com/en-US/...curity/2963983 .
