Since I refrained from installing beta versions of Flash 10.1, it's too soon to say if it delivers on Adobe's performance and stability promises. Anybody still wonder why Steve Jobs dislikes this program? And some promised Mac features, such as better performance when playing H.264 video files, aren't coming until later.

But Adobe's installer will require you to type in an administrator password to authorize its actions-and this tool, unlike the one Apple includes in OS X, won't let you check what files it plants on the hard drive.

(Adobe Reader, unfortunately, won't get patched until June 29. But the real reason to install 10.1 is its security fixes, which close a serious vulnerability.Īn Adobe advisory issued June 4 warned that this hole could "allow an attacker to take control of the affected system" and was apparently "actively exploited in the wild against both Adobe Flash Player, and Adobe Reader and Acrobat." Adobe shipped the semi-awaited 10.1 version of its Flash Player browser plug-in last night, but the results aren't likely to earn the San Jose, Calif., company any more friends.Īdobe's blog post and release notes tout Flash 10.1's performance, stability and privacy improvements.
