On April 8, 2008 Adobe released a Security Bulletin regarding vulnerabilities with various versions of Adobe Flash Player. In the Security Bulletin they recommend upgrading to the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (at least to version 9.0.124.0 or higher). However, various reports were published today from security firms and security related websites reminding users about the threats associated with continuing to run earlier versions of Adobe Flash Player.[more] If you have not already verified your system(s) (or your companies systems) have the "patched" version of Adobe Flash Player, you should do so. You will need to check for both Microsoft Internet Explorer and FireFox. The plug-ins are different, so updating in FireFox does not update IE and vice versa. To read more, visit the links below.
