The Beeb orders you to use Firefox
Actually, they just mentioned in passing that there is another serious security hole in Internet Explorer and that the US Computer Emergency Reponse Center (Cert) recommends that you should "use a browser other then MS Internet Explorer until the current vulnerabilities in MSIE are patched." That sounds logical - switch to a browser which hasn't been compromised (such as Firefox - because it's actually good) and then switch back to IE once they've given you some tape to patch it.
