Adobe Vulnerabilities
Critical vulnerabilities have been identified in Adobe Flash Player that could allow an attacker who successfully exploits these potential vulnerabilities to take control of the affected system. A malicious SWF must be loaded in Flash Player by the user for an attacker to exploit these potential vulnerabilities. Users are recommended to update to the most current version of Flash Player available for their platform.

Re: Adobe Vulnerabilities
I had seen it before, but first started using it regularly after Geekgirl posted this:
Security Risks from unpatched media players...Are you at Risk? I get emails from them once or twice a month, run the scan, and update any apps it finds. Firefox and Opera are usually current, as they have the update feature built-in to the browser. MS could learn something (more) from them in that regard.

Re: Adobe Vulnerabilities
It's a pity that thread hasn't got wider exposure. I'll post there and suggest it be posted in the MS forums.
