Perfect headline. It straddles the ambiguity between the two possible meanings: the sarcastic one, about IT personnel scrambling to put fixes in place over their 'nice' weekend, and the non-sarcastic one, addressed to hackers who could have some fun with this.

In any case, Adobe, the timing has exactly the level of thoughtfulness we have come to expect from the Flash team. The only way you could have done more damage would be to have done it last week when the US had a long weekend, or some other even longer holiday.



It is unlikely that anybody at Adobe controlled the timing of this release.


Sucks for them. They should get their code base under control. Or their web site, if that's what you meant.
