The problem with Flash is if you have it installed, your computer will run all Flash programs without telling the user. Spy-ware, Ad-ware, and Viruses will be put on your computer because, you didn't get a chance to turn off Flash.
I have suggested to Adobe for years to put an on/off switch in the Flash player, but still no switch.
Adobe has claimed for years there is no way for flash to cause problems with a computer, for that same time, Flash issues are in the news almost once a week. The only easy quick fix, is to kill all ActiveX on your browser. If Adobe Flash player had an off switch, we could turn off just flash.
We will not use Adobe Flash until they have a switch we can turn flash off and on.
The easy fix for Flash for users right now is, uninstall flash as soon as you get home today!
