I hate Flash. It wants to update every thirty-four seconds, and it won’t shut up.

I have zero-day security software installed so I’m not affected.

HTML 5 is set to replace Flash and Netflix is running Microsoft Silverlight

I got a message Saturday and Sunday that someone was rewriting script on my iMac? I should have grabbed a screen capture but it rattled me and just shut down

I’m sure glad that Steve Jobs kept Flash off the iPhone! Flash is trash!

However the attack vector used in every single exploit is ... a browser !

In other words, what makes you think the code in your browser is safe ?
