Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
A vulnerability in several versions of Acrobat and Reader could be exploited by maliciously crafted PDF files to cause crashing or to cause arbitrary code execution.
There have been reports that the vulnerability has been used in highly targeted attacks on large organisations. One exploit installs a remote access backdoor on Windows systems.
The problem apparently relates to the handling of JBIG2 data - a compression scheme for bi-level (eg black or white with no shades of grey) images.
Adobe has delivered on its promise to provide a fix by March 11.
Adobe Acrobat 9.1 and Reader 9.1 are now available for Windows and Mac OS X and plug this security hole.
They also address a number of customer workflow issues, according to Adobe officials, and improve the stability of the products.
The Unix version of Reader 9.1 should be available by March 25.
For those unable to run Acrobat 9 or Reader 9, Adobe plans to release a corresponding update for versions 7 and 8 by March 18.
Reader 9.1 is available here, while updates for Acrobat are available via this page on Adobe's site.
