    FYI the zero-day Flash vulnerability exploited by The Mask is the one fixed in the most recent Flash update, so I would advise to update asap if you're on an older version.

    Stuff like this amazes me. I'm less scared of it and more curious. I will however chuckle when the inevitable few come along claiming their setup will prevent stuff like this. There is always a few of them.
