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.
