Speaking of communication, did you know that versions of the Flash player prior to "9,0,115,0" have serious security bugs (aka vulnerabilities or holes)?

And it's a necessary communication, removing the Flash player using the standard Add or Remove Programs applet from the Windows XP control panel doesn't work, and may or may not indicate that it doesn't work. Did you know this was necessary? Do your friends?įrom where I sit, it doesn't seem that Adobe has done a good job of communicating this. No response.Īnd then there is the whole issue of needing a special Flash player un-installer in the first place. Realizing their press people might want to be aware of this, I also contacted the public relations department at Adobe ( using this form). It is now two weeks later, and Adobe never responded, either to me or by updating the un-installer. The un-installer would run fine, but Firefox would nonetheless continue to use an old version of the Flash player, even after installing a newer version.Īt the time, I reported this as a bug to Adobe ( using this form). Simply put, Adobe is not aware of all the places that Firefox looks to find the Flash player. On December 22, I wrote about problems updating the Flash player in Firefox, where I mentioned that the Adobe un-installer program for the Flash player does not always un-install the Firefox plug-in DLL version of the Flash player.
