  Windows XP users must update Flash now
Time: 15:32 EST/20:32 GMT | News Source: PC Advisor | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Microsoft has confirmed that the version of Adobe Flash bundled with Windows XP contains multiple bugs, and urged customers to upgrade to a newer edition of the multimedia player plug-in.

In a security advisory issued alongside a one-patch update for the month, Microsoft acknowledged that Flash Player 6 contains numerous vulnerabilities. Flash Player 6 is the version of Adobe's software that Microsoft includes in Windows XP, even in the copies it continues to sell to computer makers, who offer the eight-year-old operating system on netbooks, laptops and some desktop PCs.

Adobe discontinued security support for Flash Player 6 in 2006.
