DirectX, which Windows uses in displaying multimedia, has a security hole that is being attacked. Details are given by Ryan Naraine at ZDNet.

Addendum: Microsoft has a temporary work-around at this link.

Second addendum: I should have mentioned that the security problem does not apply to Windows Vista.
