Oldgamer51 Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 Apparently there was a a very bad malware virus going around embedded in the last adobe flashplayer update 20.0 something that it was capable of holding your pc up for ransom, the culprits wanted bitcoins of all things to release your pc. Adobe released a new update today to combat this new malware. So update!
THK Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 Where do you use flash player again? Never installed it on my fresh OS install and never seemed to have needed it. ..........................back with a vengeance........................
JoyStickKilla Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 Yeah, why in the world would you install flashplayer?

Aorin Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Nah, you don't need Google, I can tell you what HTML5 is, by heart, look: HTML5 is a markup language used for structuring and presenting content on the World Wide Web. It is the fifth and current version of the HTML standard. No, I didn't copy this from here > https://www.google.com.br/search?q=html5&oq=html&aqs=chrome.0.69i59j69i60j69i57j69i65l2j69i60.2373j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Aorin
Spawk Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Flash is still used by a crap load of sites... namely FB games! Flash is resource hungry though and as such cannot really be implemented on mobile devices. I have heard of people getting it to run on certain phones but it's buggy as all hell and Adobe has long since dropped all support for it. Sent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk
