    Currently, for as far as I can see, the only ActiveX from Adobe I have is a Flash ActiveX. (IE 7, Windows XP)

    I did some cleaning some time ago.

    Adobe Reader version 8.1.2.

    I recall that I deliberately eliminated some ActiveX' like IEHelper or something like that.

    Since the 'cleaning' Adobe Reader doesn't appear to have any ActiveX.

    Am I at risk somehow ? I have disabled Javascript in the Adobe Reader.

    Btw, the Adobe Reader is not in my startup list, nor is it allowed to connect to the internet, my firewall intercepts such an attempt.

    Am I also correct in assuming that Adobe's Flash 9 has only one ActiveX ?
