Not that I can see, if you look at the 032 notes it does state that this has not been fixed ;(

The technique uses a flaw in Internet Explorer with the OBJECT-tag
allowing code to be executed locally that is loaded from a website.

The tag
<![CDATA[
<object data=tracker.php></object>
]]>
lets IE download a HTML-application that will be executed after
loading.

A testpage where you can test your locally installed Internet
Explorer for being vulnerable can be found at
http://www.heise.de/security/dienste/browsercheck/demos/ie/htacheck.shtml
If your installation is vulnerable, a program will be downloaded
to C:\browsercheck.exe that will executed afterwards leading to
a window popping up. The page is in German.
