On Monday, Adobe has release the update that fixes the vulnerability discovered in September by Petko D Petkov, which was affecting computers using Microsoft Windows XP and Internet Explorer 7.

The method was to make a user accept a malicious file in Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader, in order to allow the attacker to take remotely control of the machine.
Now users can upgrade to Adobe Reader 8.1.1 or Acrobat 8.1.1., until the company will release fixes for the previous affected versions.

Who needs to keep the older version, has to disable the “mailto” function in Acrobat, Acrobat 3D and Adobe Reader, from the Windows registry.
