Adobe Still Ignores Elcomsoft-Discovered Holes

evenprime writes "In 2001, Dmitry Sklyarov described vulnerabilities in Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Acrobat Reader while giving a talk at Defcon 9. As has been previously mentioned, Dmitry was arrested the day after this talk. He and his company Elcomsoft were charged with violating the DMCA. Now Elcomsoft have announced that Adobe, two years later, has still not patched these bugs."

    I really don't understand all of this gay nigger shit. Fellas, we have a much larger problem on our hands. I say we start a JEW LAMPSHADE ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA or JLAA. We could take jews and put them to practical use. Seriously, do gay niggers really need an assocation? From where I stand, the main problem is the shortage of fine Jew skin furniture - and for fine Jew furniture, you need a group of jews - or - JLAA. Think about it...let's do some good for this world.

    I guess they're taking the completely legal path here. The bug was discovered illegially, and therefore cannot be used against them!

    I can't speak for the parent, but I'd guess it was the high cost of the proprietary, closed-architecture hardware, coupled with the lack of standards-based applications (up until OS X, which was too little, too late).
