So Microsoft update a patch today to do with Adobe flash player and I quote "Caveats: This bulletin is for customers using Macromedia Flash Player version 6 from Adobe. Customers that have followed the guidance in Adobe Security Bulletin APSB06-11, issued September 12, 2006, are not at risk from these vulnerabilities. Vulnerable versions of Macromedia Flash Player from Adobe are redistributed with Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2, Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 3, and Microsoft Windows XP Professional x64 Edition."

Now XP sp3 has only been out a couple of weeks, if that, Adobe released their bulleting in September 2006 so how on earth is WindowsXP sp3 vulnerable - surely flash should have been updated in the xpsp3 release! This seems to make a mockery of the security focus that Microsoft are meant to be working hard on and coming on the heels of the recent snafu's with Windows updates and genuine advantage, it's no wonder people are not very happy with patching.

I've had several computers fail to install the MS06-020 patch for Flash - which seems to be caused by having more than one version of flash loaded on the pc in the past. The main solution at KB913433 is to go to the Macromedia site and download the new player directly

After spending too long at it, I managed to get the men to their portal in Hapland. A great game although timing is everything. When you've completed it (or before if you are a wuss and give up) then you get to play Hapland2
