These have now been closed down.
Chrome has built in adobe plugins which are sometimes a problem:

Hi, Peter :-)
Chris mentioned the Adobe Acrobat plugin;
this is used to view PDF files within the browser;
has nothing to do with the Adobe Flash plugin,
that your linked article speaks about...
Adobe Acrobat plugin is installed in your system
along the free Adobe Reader (now renamed
Adobe Acrobat Reader DC) or the pricy Adobe
Acrobat Pro application - Google Chrome
comes with its own internal "Chrome PDF Viewer",
so the best practice is to disable one of the two
via chrome://plugins/ in Google Chrome.
Just a clarification!
As far as the built-in Adobe Pepper Flash
plugin in Chrome is concerned, its days are
numbered as the Google team plans to ditch it
altogether in favour of HTML5!
Many cheers,
V.
