Adobe has verified that there are already existing exploits of the Flash player that were not fixed in the latest version just released.

On my systems Flash is set such that it must ask permission to run on each page that requests it. Such permission is usually not given since the reason for requesting Flash is usually to spray you with ads. Cutting it out also improves internet response and computer performance.
