Exploit.ADODB.Stream.BR is also known as Exploit.JS.ADODB.Stream.y, Exploit:JS/MS06014, VBS.Psyme.

Explanation :

If the security settings of Microsoft Internet Explorer are lowered (which can happen either with or without the knowledge of the user - for example the Trojan.Lowzone malware family does this), websites can use active scripting to download and execute arbitrary files on the clients computer, thus the computer can become infected with malware by simply visiting these sites. This signature detects such scripts.
