Sent from my iPhone 4 On Dec 9, 2011, at 9:24 AM, MaGioZal magio...@gmail.com So are you saying that we can run Flash 11 on PowerPC? No, it's a hack that involves feeding the wrong version number to the player. It is NOT flash 11 on ppc. Most of these sites require a newer version number, not newer flash functionality. And bam Theres your hack. -- MaGioZal. http://formspring.me/magiozal/ -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

The discoverer of the vulnerability has promised an OS X version of the exploit tool soon. Damn I wish every website would ditch flash forever and convert to HTML5. We'll be stuck with legacy flash content for tens of years I fear.
