Obviously, but since there is a website (what started this thread) and people do run into issues (Help forums) with such a thing, is a specific solution for Flash, at least, coming up soon?People getting infected while using Chrome is... really, really, not optimal.
(And frankly... kind of scares me.) I know you are working hard on it, regardless of any complaints or mishaps, I appreciate all of the work that you are doing. I am not saying you are not trying to solve these problems. It is just that, from reading that thread, it seems like you simply said, "Hey, that is an Adobe issue, we are not the responsible party" and, yeah, OK, it may as well be, but Chrome is infected currently, so even the slightest specific exception for this type of attacks, is not that illogical. Right? Thank you, all. ☆PhistucK On Mon, Aug 10, 2009 at 00:31, Amanda Walker <[email protected]> wrote: > We've already started to tackle the issue (see the existing code that is > turned on with --safe-plugins), we just haven't solved it.
