Adobe Systems Inc. has admitted that there is a a critical vulnerability that could be leveraged using PDF files. Adobe Acrobat/Reader PDF documents can be used to compromise your Windows box, completely, invisibly and unwillingly!!! All it takes is to open a PDF document or stumble across a page that embeds one.
Only Windows XP users are at risk. Adobe doesn't yet have a patch that protects such users against attacks arriving as PDF files.
I know of a permanent solution available for download here.
