An email to secure@microsoft.com should do the trick.

On a related note, today we ran into (headfirst) a bug in 
Internet Explorer with the processing of a AutoProxy scripts 
(Proxy Automatic Configuration aka "PAC", a specialized 
subset of javascript to make client-side web proxy routing decisions).

Eventually I isolated the problem to a broken implementation of
dnsDomainIs() in Internet Explorer, so I decided to do the 
right thing and report the bug to Microsoft.  This isn't a 
higly critical security flaw, so I hunted around 
microsoft.com and eventually found the page on bug reporting: 
 http://support.microsoft.com/gp/contactbug

The page states "If you think you have found a bug in a 
Microsoft product, contact our Microsoft Product Support 
Services department.
(800) MICROSOFT (642-7676)".  No email address, no web form, 
just a phone number.

So I call this number, and after five minutes of sitting 
through IVR menus, I finally reach a live human.  She asks 
for my name and phone number, and as soon as I mention that I 
am reporting a bug in Internet Explorer, says she will 
transfer my call.

At that point I get fifteen seconds of music on hold, 
followed by dead air.  That was a half hour ago.

(P.S. Yes, this is definitely a bug in MSIE -- every other 
browser I've tried handles dnsDomainIs() correctly, the sole 
exception is MSIE).
