Title: UPDATE YOUR ADOBE SOFTWARE!
Post by: channelmaniac on January 21, 2010, 07:00:03 PM
OK folks,

There's a new version of Adobe Shockwave Player out. You MUST install this updated version if you already have Shockwave on your system. If you do not then you are at risk for your computer being infected and or pwn3d (owned) by hackers.

Also, the Adobe Flash and Acrobat Players are just as bad about security issues so you want to make sure they are patched too.

Here are some links to help you:
