Flash Vulnerability Could Compromise Your Aecurity
As I was logging on to WoW earlier, I saw the security alert below on the Flash vulnerability. It was a scary feeling since I never want my WoW account hacked into. Flash is something I use and thought to be safe. Thankfully, there’s a fix so I highly suggest that all of you who use Flash upgrade to the new version immediately.
A recent vulnerability has been discovered in popular web-content delivery program Adobe Flash, and it could potentially be used to target World of Warcraft players and accounts. The newest available version of Adobe Flash, version 9.0.124.0, does not contain this vulnerability, and we recommend that everyone upgrade their Flash player as soon as possible by visiting the Adobe.com download page at the link below.

And remember, don’t avail of power leveling services and purchase gold. These compromise your account security and are bannable offenses.
