A lot of eyes have been
on Adobe since last week,
when yet another remote
code execution
vulnerability affecting
Flash Player, as well as
Adobe Reader and
Acrobat, was announced.
Worse yet, the bug was
discovered in the wild,
meaning it posed an
immediate threat to users.

Flash Player 10.1 has been
a long-awaited release,
mainly because it
introduces GPU hardware
acceleration, a feature
that takes the load off
CPUs during HD SWF
playback, finally allowing
for such content to be
properly watched on
netbooks and other low-
performance devices. The
video-streaming
experience has also been
improved, the player
automatically adapting
the stream quality in real
time according to network
conditions.
