Thread: Chat is DISABLED due to Security Breach

Any way to get a physical address on the hoople heads causing the damage? I'm not doing anything important next week... I could drop by and say "hi".

Hoople Head, I haven't heard that since I watched Dead Wood

I like to think there is a special bad place for bad people to go when they die, but for hackers and other losers that sit in their parents basements in their underoos eating Cheeto's screwing up others peoples computers for the hell of it, I like to think there is an even worse place for them

The title says it all...


Note, while waiting for files to upload I was browsing in the flashchat support forum and read up a bit more on the security issues this version fixes. Apparently the initial intrusion path is via a shortcoming in the flash environment (as in flash from adobe/macromedia, not flashchat). Thus, it is strongly recommended that you make sure you're running the latest version of the flash player supported by your operating system.

It should tell you what version you currently have and there's a table of what the latest version available is for various operating systems. There's also a link to the "Player Download Center" if you need an update.

Thanks Joe. I'm up to date!
