: Google's "Desktop Search" products uses the susceptible component to 
: "size down" images for display when returning search results.  As a 
: result of this sizing down, the WMF exploit may be executed.

Doesn't Firefox and a dozen other programs too? I mean, they are all 
vectors of an attack, but the actual vulnerability and susceptible code is 
in Windows, right? Google software/code itself doesn't have the 
weakness?
