Sorry Jon,

Let me clarify that this Flash update was very much needed, even though we 
go to another Beta. The problem is that the 64bit plugin (square alpha) 
had lots of security issues. Undoubtedly this release will have some too, 
but at least anything known is fixed in a more recent release.

Here's hoping Adobe will take care of 64bit platforms soon with proper 
security updates...
