Adobe bug may be "worst of 2007"

Adobe bug may be "worst of 2007"

Seems a bit early in the year to give any company this dishonorable distinction,
but experts are saying that the Adobe bug found last week may be the worst but
of the year.

InformationWeek is reporting that the Adobe bug found last week is much worse
than was originally thought. A bug in Adobe Reader could enable hackers to make
PDFs operate as carriers for malicious Java code. Here's the link:

Adobe says its working on a patch to release next week.

There is a fix in the update in Version 7.0.9 or install Version 8, which
reportedly does not include the vulnerabilty.
