If you had <Insert software title> runing on <Insert O/S>, then this wouldn't happen. It serves you right for running <Insert software title> on the crappy <Insert O/S>, so you get what you <Insert insult> deserve.
It's possible either US-CERT or Symantec are wrong the following from isc.sans update of earlier diary.
"We have received a report that exploits are now working for Vista, XP, IE6, IE7, and Safari 3.0 on Windows. Keep in mind that other attack vectors may be vulnerable as well."

"avoid following links to untrusted Web sites."
along with "don't open dodgy emails" and "don't run dodgy programs" this mantra should keep anybody safe.
