Another option is to install Google Chrome and get more recent versions of
Flash provided for you by Google. As far as I know, Google made an agreement
with Adobe to allow Google to support Flash on linux - I'm willing to be
corrected on this if someone has a source that negates this premise.
But yes, I agree that Flash is a hell hole of security flaws and problems. I
think most sites are starting to migrate to HTML5, including some online game
companies - hopefully we won't need Flash in the future.

Hi All,
Over on
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/?promoid=JZEFT
it states:
NOTE: Adobe Flash Player 11.2 will be the last
version to target Linux as a supported platform.
Adobe will continue to provide security backports
to Flash Player 11.2 for Linux.
Is not Flash a bit of a security nightmare to start with?
Or is better if we only get backports?
