Need Instructions? NOT... you don't even use Linux and you're telling me how to use it! ...and now you're saying that a plugin running within a fully profiled "AppArmored Browser" (Firefox) can somehow plant malicious code in Linux, from a web site using a Firefox Flash Plugin. I guess these hackers have a secret door or knowledge about 100's of totally different Linux Distros Directories in them! haha..
Why according to you guys.... it knows exactly where my files (kernel modules, drivers, configs, etc) and folders are kept, within my particular Linux distro no less! Dream on buddies!!! .....btw... I DON'T use Ubuntu!
...but my install came with a (full profiled) "AppArmored Firefox" browser pre-installed and enabled on first boot! lolLike I said..... "Surf Safe and Surf Protected". How (if you're that freaked, which you should be on Windows)? By #1.. running your Browser and OS install, through a Hyper or Secure Tunnel Service. #2 Installed on a virtual install space of some kind. Either from a or within VMware (whichever you use). #3 Since you can't run any other OS from a Live disk, naturally your only choice is Linux in Booting a Live DVD for that one! (like the director of the FBI chooses for Banking, etc)
But.... just for the imbeciles among you, here's something you can do right on your very own bedbug infested Windows Install (remembering these numbers from above of course; Plugins & Controls, ActiveX= 134 vulnerabilities (highest among plug-ins), Java SE= 84, Adobe Reader= 49, QuickTime= 27, Adobe Flash Player= 23 the lowest of the lot. Naturally these are all on Windows!
haha...NXClient Download and run your choice of a full Linux install or more secure and faster application Browser in "Test Drive" (Yes... Flash is installed in Firefox on KDE):

ActiveX browser plugin Application Control, Utilizes Security Mechanisms to prevent malicious use of the controlled Applications. Let's see how good it actually works? But... remember it's known to be vulnerable to... malicious abuse. The NSA has gone on record as stating it as the worse plugin threat to Internet Security on the web; Re-enforcing Symantec's results above!
ZDNet Story on Ubuntu in March (read comments from the Linux user you all love to hate, cuz he's right)!

Challenge your own OS and Security to a test!
Gather a list of known infected sites (including those w/ FLASH security vulnerabilities) and visit them in a duel. Pitting the sandboxed Linux browser (on NX Test Drive Server Browser or OS Equivalent) against your local Win XP or Vista installed IE Browser with-in minutes!BTW.... afterall, I'm just an everyday user. Unlike you guys claiming to be "Bona Fide Security Experts"!
