MS06-051 is an important one to have installed for protection.

QUOTE: The important take away is that the use of this
technique means that all of the otherwise
non-exploitable issues reported in H D's postings can
potentially be exploited in a reliable fashion through
the use of this technique. However, it will only work
on machines that are not patched with the latest
critical updates since this issue has now been
addressed by the patch that was created for MS06-051.
At any rate, it would be interesting to know what
other applications might be vulnerable to this type of
attack as well as other interesting ways to achieve it
in Internet Explorer.

QUOTE: Matt Miller posted to the Metasploit Blog about
a technique that allows arbitrary code execution in
Internet Explorer using any fatal unhandled exception.
Every Internet Explorer denial of service flaw is
exploitable if MS06-051 has not been installed. More
information can be found in the Uninformed Journal
article.
