Winapp2.ini Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 About time - I've been calling for Flash's death for years, YouTube and Facebook were/are the last major holdouts on moving to HTML5 as at least an option winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eL_PuSHeR Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Agreed.The faster we get rid of Flash the better. I remember trying Flash on an old Pentium 4 computer and it ran like garbage. HTML5 played videos quite well in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy2 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 And now we'll see that hackers will be focussing on exploiting weak spots in HTML 5. Right ?

Alan_B Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 And now we'll see that hackers will be focussing on exploiting weak spots in HTML 5. Right ? Hackers would have no problem exploiting HTML5 - BUT ONLY IF HTML5 WAS AN ADOBE PRODUCT, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted January 30, 2015 Moderators Share Posted January 30, 2015 And now we'll see that hackers will be focussing on exploiting weak spots in HTML 5. Right ? This is much more correct than Alan's follow-up joke. Hackers (especially now-a-days) focus on the biggest target, thus if HTML5 grows larger than flash it will be the target. ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

In other words, users of Internet Explorer & Firefox now can expect to see (a lot of) more updates for those browsers.

Moderators Andavari Posted January 30, 2015 Moderators Share Posted January 30, 2015 And now we'll see that hackers will be focussing on exploiting weak spots in HTML 5. Right ? It would be rather interesting if Flash continued development yet also became such an after thought that it became less exploited than HTML 5.

Winapp2.ini Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Right. In other words, users of Internet Explorer & Firefox now can expect to see (a lot of) more updates for those browsers. Fortunately most people actually update their browsers (chrome and IE both do it in the background, Firefox will ask you to do it, etc) unlike Flash. So a lot of these issues can be addressed very quickly! winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
