    64bit Flash for Linux vanishes?

    Adobe has taken down the download link for it's 64bit Linux flash plugin, until they put it back up I've made it available here:

    SandBox - Projects by Darkrose - Blog

    For anyone that needs it.

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    Apparently Linux 64-bit 10.1 is no longer available, probably because they lack resources to push security fixes into it and still get 10.1 release out in a reasonable time frame. 10.1 is what will go into Android mobile devices. Here is a link to the slashdot article about this: Slashdot Linux Story | Adobe (Temporarily?) Kills 64-Bit Flash For Linux

    Here's more on the issue causing it to be shelved for now:

    US-CERT Technical Cyber Security Alert TA10-159A -- Adobe Flash, Reader, and Acrobat Vulnerability

    It would have been nice had they not abandoned 64-bit users, though.
