In any event, I wasn't inclined to wait for Adobe Reader's auto-update component to fetch and install the latest security patch without, nor would I recommend that other Adobe Reader 9.x users wait to update their version.

So when I heard last week about an important security update for Adobe Reader 9, I hurried to the Adobe site to download the new version 9.2.

(I wrote about the importance of keeping your apps updated in a post from last April.) Along with Sun's Java, Adobe's Flash Player, and Apple's QuickTime media players, it's imperative that you keep your PDF reader up-to-date to prevent it from becoming an entryway for viruses. Unfortunately, the ubiquity of Adobe Reader and other PDF software has made the format a target for malware perpetrators. PDF has been the de facto standard for document exchange since the mid-1990s, but it wasn't an official ISO standard until 2008.
