San Francisco, CA -- According to James Niccolai of the IDG News
Service, Macromedia Inc. has warned of a "critical" security
flaw in
the latest version of its Flash animation player and advised
users to
install a new version that it released on the Web to fix the
problem.
The security flaw reportedly affects Version 6 of the Macromedia
Flash Player, which was released a year ago this month and has
been
installed on an estimated 75% of PCs worldwide, according to the
company. The Macromedia bulletin, with a link to the download
site
for a cumulative patch , is at
