Updates for the following software are coming on Tuesday, according to Adobe’s prenotification security advisory:
• Reader 9.3 for Windows, Mac, and Unix
• Acrobat 9.3 for Windows and Mac
• Reader 8.2 for Windows and Mac
• Acrobat 8.2 for Windows and Mac
“The Tuesday updates will also address the Flash issue, Adobe said,” Mills reports. “Meanwhile, the company released a security update to fix a hole in Flash Player version 10.0.42.43 (and earlier versions) that could “subvert the domain sandbox and make unauthorized cross-domain requests,” according to a security bulletin.”

“Oh, and btw, we’d still like it in the iPhone. Love, Adobe.”
Hahahahahahahahaha!! A$$es.
Oh dear. This will do Adobe no favours.
…Good!
Adobe has gone down hill ever since the original CEO stepped down.
When iPhone first did not support Flash, I thought “lame for apple”. But as this shakes out, it makes more and more sense.
Flash generally just sucks. Even though the animations it allowed on the web were cool – “back in tha day” that is.
Bring on HTML 5 and standard complient web browsers!
If someone could just kill Photoshop …
DONG! DONG! DONG! Ask not for whom the bell tolls Adobe,, it tolls for thee!
Yeah, Adobe, maybe you oughta get your own house in order first, before you expect Apple to put your buggy, insecure piece of crap on their shiny new platforms?
Still, at least Adobe seems to be making security mistakes by accident… Google, on the other hand, is making them on purpose.
No problem. I got a Mac/ClickToFlash/Preview.

I think the original guys are now on the Board. Nothing new happening there.
Inconceivable! And so begins the death of Flash once and for all. When will all the ignorant lemmings say no to Flash
Flash-hole… I like that.
Another reason to not use / want Flash…

And Safari’s built-in PDF viewer. They’re much better and faster than Reader.
I’m amazed when I see Mac users running Acrobat Reader—they installed it because they assumed they had to, and are suffering needlessly!
You lazy Adobe……
Speaking of bug, did you hear that the new patch from microsoft to fix a 17 years old bug is crashing windows XP computers?

I really like, and enjoy working with Photoshop. IMO it’s a very robust and excellent program.
Jubei, for more complex PDFs that Preview doesn’t handle well, The free open source PDFView works great, much better than Reader.
@neomonkey
Cool. Thanks for the tip. Getting it now.
Photoshop and Illustrator from are two essential desktop publishing programs. They have been lacking in professional development and Mac implementation for the past 5 years or so . They are Adobe’s only assets and Jobs called Adobe lazy because they have been resting on their laurels and counting on those flagship products to be eternally infallible…
I wish someone else could develop a worthy equal or better substitute –
That would be the real end of Adobe.
No MDN take? Good restrant MDN…
Photoshop is the best thing going for photo editing. However it’s also an antiquated hairball of a program. When asked by Adobe management what could be done to improve Photoshop, the P-Shop team replied: start over from scratch.
WOW!
I think I’m gonna start adding “Adobe” to my list of companies that are ran like crap and who are erogant and think they don’t need to appease the customers…
