Vulnerable Apps Watch

According to Danish security company CSIS, most Windows infections by commercial malware are the result of failure to patch IE and a few vulnerable apps. Here is their list from September, 2011, with the latest version numbers as of Tuesday, 28 Apr 2015:
Adobe Flash Player v 17.0.0.169 (IE) 17.0.0.169 (Firefox) (updated 14 Apr 2015). NOTE: update BOTH IE and Firefox Flash Players.

Adobe Reader (and Acrobat) v10.1.13 or v11.0.10 (updated 9 Dec 2014). NOTE: AR 9 is no longer being updated. Switch or update!
Adobe - Acrobat : For Windows

Java Runtime Engine (JRE) 8.0.45 (8u45) (updated 14 Apr 2015)

Apple Quicktime v7.7.6 (updated 22 Oct 2014)
Home and business users can scan their systems using the Secunia Personal Software Inspector.
WARNING: Adobe (Flash, Reader) and Oracle (Java) OFTEN install additional software like toolbars or Google Chrome from their download pages. UNCHECK this additional software unless you really want it.

Anti-Spyware Updates

These are several anti-spyware apps that are free for home use which I use and recommend IN ADDITION TO your anti-virus program. Use both of these in non-resident mode to keep your browser from accessing known-bad URLs.
