That makes it safer, but it also removes all the extra functionality that would have motivated someone to install Adobe Reader on a Fedora box in the first place. This is what we found even for our Windows users. To get around the 0-day that was out there for more than a month, we had all Adobe users on every platform disable JavaScript. The result was that a lot of documents would no longer display correctly. Adobe and its piss-poor security track record is currently our #1 security headache. For all the reasons already documented in this thread, we are forced to use Adobe Reader, but it is riddled with actively exploited security holes. --Greg -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
