Security researchers fret over Adobe PDF flaw

Why Javascript 

Why does a PDF reader need to be able to run Javascript? To drive upgrades?

Flaws in Adobe software, say it ain't so!

No Scripting for You 

Stop

Like I said on another post reporting the same thing ... "Scripting just needs to be off by default with a whitelist of known good sites. Users can then customize the whitelist to their own needs ... sort of like NoScript ... except I don't think NoScript works for Adobe products." I'd like to add that maybe alternative readers could also help - e.g., FoxIt. A little bit of variety makes it a little harder to get mass 0wnage at least.
