Good thing I am still using the 2011 version then!

I have a fix for Flash that prevents every exploit on it.
  • Download this and save it to your Desktop.

  • Double click it.

  • Proceed with the uninstaller.

Make a thread with this guide, surely it will be stickied.

Yah seriously, if my movie streaming habits would let me I would have removed Flash Player ages ago. At least they have auto-updater 🤫

Yeah, this piece of shit Flash Player needs to be dead. I hope that HTML5 will fully replace Flash in the future.

It's in the process, but for now, many websites still uses Adobe Flash Player and are not fully converted to HTML5 yet.

The fact that there's a security flaw in it every week. Not a minor one, one that can allow total remote control of the system, lol.

This.
And the fact that the Linux versions of it are buggy as hell, and Adobe stopped caring about Linux. No updates are being released, just security fixes. And hardware acceleration is glitchy on open-source GPU drivers.
With this addon, most YouTube videos play without Flash: https://addons.mozilla.org/pl/firefox/addon/youtube-all-html5/

Many browsers includes their own version of Flash I guess, so you don't have to install it directly on your system. People that install it on HackForums are mostly people doing eWhoring and using VCW as it required Flash Player to be installed in order to use it with ManyCam.

I'm not going to use Google Chrome just to have an up-to-date version of Flash.

The fact that I can't mine on its slaves is one (if I could maybe then you could remove my PS .dll's) 😏

Other than that I love chome, I am not doing anything to grab the attention of authorities or anything that is worth their time.

This mostly. If you don't do anything illegal, you don't care about the botnet 🤣
