Adobe Patches Again! This Is Ridiculous!

Ok, we have been over this before, yet I will state it again. Adobe PDF reader is unsafe. Perhaps after you read the report that I am posting a link to you will agree. It is reporting that Adobe PDF Reader  accounted for 80% of the exploits the company encountered in 2009! That's a staggering statistic if you ask me. It's a very simple thing to fix to. How do you do that? Get rid of it! I know that sounds absurd, but with other PDF readers available to essentially do the same thing with less hassle, why wouldn't you? My suggestion in the past is use a program such as Foxit Reader. It's free and is not prone to the problems associated with an unsafe program. You can also get a version that will allow you to edit PDF's very simply. Do yourself a favor, and throw Adobe in the trash. The other alternative of course is to MAKE SURE you patch it whenever there is a new version:
