I recently uninstalled flash on my machine. This was before the newest security problems, I uninstalled simply to stop some of the self playing videos on web pages, that some how dodged the Addblock Plus filters. I get that these web sites are trying to turn a profit, but if your add is annoying, I'm going to keep your page blocked.
I have fond memories of flash, dating back to the early days of Newgrounds, it pains me to see the web move away from it. I do find it odd though, that since so many advertisers use flash in their adds, that there isn't more profit to be had by Adobe for keeping it up to date and secure.
