I've been "saved" from the exploits because I have my browser set up to NOT embed pdfs... instead I get a dialog asking what I'd like to do with XXX.pdf (save, load with default application).

I've loaded at least 3 sites which invoked this dialog, so if it wasn't for that I probably would have been infected.

I think it's time to try something else, foxit looks good...
