Of course, up-to-date is not equal to invulnerable. Right now, the Plugin Check page gives a green thumb up for Shockwave Flash 10.0.45.0, while reading just the next article in the LWN Security page says this version might "allow an attacker to take control of the affected system"...

Heh. The version number is also wrong. I have 10.0.45.2 installed (according to <http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/>), but the Plugin Check site says reports that I have version 10.0.45.0 installed.

... and a thumbs down to Acrobat Reader 9.3.1, which is the latest in the 9.x branch and is, as far as I know, still receiving security updates.
