From Kim Komando's newsletter: "Researchers say that hackers could take over your computer via Adobe Reader. Clicking on a PDF link on any Web site could launch an attack. The flaw affects IE 6 and Firefox. Until this is fixed, don't open PDFs in your Web browser, even from trusted sites."    http://www.komando.com/
