Very weird, I posted this Announcement 10 minutes ago... it appeared then
suddenly I got a OE screen saying it was no longer available on the server. I
guess Big Brother is watching. Anyway it's important, so if Ms didn't like my
MM link here it is without... Sorry bout the double post if it ever shows up
again. :P

If you have a version of the Macromedia Flash Player earlier than 7.0.60.0 or
8.0.22.0, you have a version that may be affected by the reported
vulnerabilities. This is a CRITICAL update:

The quick way that I've heard of to test your current Flash level is to go
here:

http://macromedia.com/

and right click the banner across the top of the page. The "about" entry
should reference your version level, for 8 it is displayed in the context
menu, or you can click on it and read more.

If you see 8 referenced there, my understanding is that you are on a safe
version.
