    Expired Security Certificate for Flash Player 10.2.153.1 Install

      When I tried to update the Flash Player to the latest release, 10.2.153.1, Adobe tried to download the latest DLM. This is normal. Windows 7 gives the the option to check the publisher's security certificate, which I always do. This time I found that the certificate for Adobe had expired on 3/16/2011.  Since today is 3/21/2011, and the fix was made available today, I aborted the install. An expired certificate would be fine if the date the file was signed was in the period the certificate was valid, but there is no way to check that.

       

      What is going on here?  Has someone hacked the Adobe servers? Or is this just an "Oops" on the part of Adobe.
