Adobe responds to recent Flash flaw with a fix
The Flash security flaw that we recently wrote about has been addressed by Adobe and a new version is being offered.This security flaw was affecting PC and Mac users and allowed hackers to redirect you to nasty .SWF files which could then potentially execute malicious code on your machine.
You can feel secure (as well as warm and fuzzy) by downloading a Flash update with the fix here.
It's a pretty fast response to a pretty serious issue, so Adobe gets the pass this time.
Special thanks to commenter daniel free for the heads up!

The response time was incredibly fast considering the fixed version was released April 8th :-) (http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb08-11.html)

That really makes everyone that blogged about it look like a fool.
I have to include myself within those.
