This is not the first time that hackers use Adobe Flash do distribute different malware ;(
Very true, and to make things worst... many sites and services cannot be accessed without these add-on being updated. Most people upgrade to these flash players and they do not even know how
vulnerable their computers are. I avoid Adobe like the plaque for this very reason and would much rather go without these services being offered with Adobe flash requirements. I sometimes wonder if
Adobe is quietly working with some governments to inject backdoors with their proprietary code to spy on people.
