New Firefox exploit from NET Framework SP

In case everyone hasn't read it yet; http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=7381
The newest patch from Microsoft's patch Tuesday, (MS09-054) installs a vulnerable plug-in in Firefox.

So just go to Firefox's add-ons, click plugins, then chose disable for the Windows Presentation Foundation plugin.

To get rid of the plugin (Unless I understood this wrong.) go to %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\
and delete the folder named Windows Presentation Foundation.

Vista and lower, is what this advisory is for.

I am in Windows 7 (release), and I do not see the plugin in Firefox. :)

What is WPF..?

What is this "Windows Presentation Foundation" supposed to do?

I suppose it has some kind of functionality,
but who needs it and who don't..?

...

WPF is a GUI rendering program for Windows-based programs.

Security Garden is owned by an MS-MVP Corrine. I have read some nasty reports she spills out. I have no idea why she gets so rash, but I guess that is her passion.
