Adobe Flash Is Under Attack with 0 Day and The Fix
How to protect yourself from all the 0 Day Security Holes in the future. Apparently, according to this article there is not a patch for this one. If you know of 1 please feel free to post it here. These could very easily attach bugs to your pc.
I just went through that and it took me quite some time before I had all the malware, adware etc. removed from my pc.
As the article states Adobe Flash is being used less and less, but as he also talks about there will be times when you need it. You may not want to uninstall it.
This particular article is how we can protect ourselves in the future.
That say's it all. Here's the link.

Googled a few others asking why I need Adobe Flash. While there are some remaining uses I have no interest in them. My feeling is if Adobe can't keep their application clean and safe, they must have it on the back burner knowing it has probably reached it's product life cycle.
Adobe Flash ... GONE. Thanks Meredith
The only problem with that, at least according to the article is you still may need it at times. I don't think you need it if you're strictly mobile. They are a pain in ... though!
I really dislike Flash even when it works right. It slows down just about any browser on any operating system to a crawl where you have to close them out to use your computer. I use Chrome but I use other browsers also. Thank you for this info.
Dealing with this issue now. It's harder when it's an download or installation you have trust for so long. Thanks!
Thanks Julie! We are, how about you and Toby? I got my Aunt to sign up yesterday. I'm going to try and get her to join us in Chat and introduce her around.
I use Chrome now too. I clean my computer frequently too. Thanks for the heads up. So much craziness going on.
Thank You sweetie! I have Chrome too, but so many here use Firefox, Opera, etc.
I found a way to have 2 Chrome Browsers and have them work independently of each other if you're interested? It's so easy!

I removed Flash when the alert came out. Maybe I'm too cautious. When Flash gets things fixed, I may put it back. John
