    I have KIS2009 and I ran a scan last night and it picked up a few things. Mostly everything it picked up is related to Macromedia Flash and Im pretty sure they are legit.

    Those are the 4 things it picked up. Is it safe to keep these or should I get rid of them. I went to each link and each link said to update, but I ran a scan for updates in CS3 Master Edition and there are none.

    @whitedragon551
    update your flash player

    @poutine
    update your Opera

    Guys those are only a reminder that your products are outdated and vulnerable to attacks/exploits; it does not mean that you have viruses or anything malicious. ;)

    I guess that you are not using IE.
    This file (activex)
    c:\windows\system32\macromed\flash\flash.ocx
    will get updated only when you update the plugin through Internet Explorer.

    Oops... The files related to opera are in your temp directory, I missed that. :p
    Just clean up your temp files and should not warn you again.

    About the flash: try to update the adobe bridge.

    I uninstalled the activeX for IE since I use Firefox with IE Tab.

    I ran the update in Adobe Bridge and it didnt do anything. It still said there are no updates.

    I ran NPSWF32.dll through VirusTotal. Out of 36 scans it returned as a 0 threat. So i have added it to exclusions as there is no Adobe Bridge updates to cure the vulnerability at present !
    All the other items picked up got wiped by Ccleaner. ;)

    I fixed 1 of them by uninstalling the ActiveX for IE.

    I ran the other 3 through both and all came back clean from each one.
