We’re willing to bet that many of you are now starting to get frustrated with the sheer amount of ‘latest’ Adobe Flash Player updates for PC and Mac that keep popping up on your computer.
A few days ago, users would have been prompted to download a new Adobe Flash Player update to 18.0.0.203. This replaces the Flash Player 18.0.0.194 update previously, which has now been the target of a new security exploit as highlighted by the BBC.
On top of that, an update by Adobe’s Security Bulletin team has revealed that the previous Flash Player update exploit can actually allow hackers to take control of your computer.
