Since there’s news of some hackers getting into Adobe Flash’s program, I thought a lot of you might want to know how to disable it until the problem is sorted out.

On Chrome:

  1. Type chrome:plugins into the address bar
  2. Find the Adobe Flash Player
  3. Click Disable

On Firefox:

  • Go to Tools > Add-ons
  • Click on the Plugins tab
  • Find Shockwave Flash
  • Click Never Activate or Ask to Activate

I don’t have pics for firefox, but if you run into trouble I can try to help you through it.

It is absolutely unnecessary to  disable Adobe  flash, that wont help you at all. This post makes everything sound worse than it is (there are no hackers btw. Its just a vulnerability in the system ). Chill for a sec and read this

the only affected adobe flash versions are

  • Adobe Flash Player 18.0.0.194 and earlier versions for Windows and Macintosh
  • Adobe Flash Player Extended Support Release version 13.0.0.296 and earlier 13.x versions for Windows and Macintosh
  • Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.468 and earlier 11.x versions for Linux

Most of us have the newest version  18.0.0.203. This one is not listed and safe. Before you uninstall anything make sure which version you have. If your version is one of the affected ones, go and update your flash to  18.0.0.203.
