adobe exploit spam

[RandallM <randallm () fidmail com>]

anyone see this type of email going around? this particular one was
addressed by our President and aimed at our controller. fortunitly the
controller was wise enough not to click. the links will dl a program
but the headers of course are all giving to another address. the "dL
box" shows from an IP rather then adobe.

Broadcast message:

Adobe has issued a directive which states that all systems running
their software should be patched for the latest security glitch.

The CVE-2010-0193 Denial of Service Vulnerability has recently been
discovered on several systems running the previously released version
of the software, which has been further documented on security sites
such as http://www.securityfocus.  com/bid/39524.

It is strongly advised that all systems running the Adobe software is
updated with the latest security patch to avoid further situations
hampering the security and integrity of the system. Failure to follow
the directive would mean that any loss which occurs due to the
negligence will be a liability of the company and not Adobe. The link
to update the system with the latest patch and instructions are
provided below:



Download the instructions here: http://adobe.us.to/ (killed link)  update.pdf

To start the update process and download the installation file, click
here: http://adobe.us.to/ (killed link)   adbp932b.exe

(READ FIRST THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE UPDATING THE SYSTEM)
