his Acrobat 8.1.1 patch addresses a critical security flaw in Acrobat 8.1 and fixes some minor issues. Here is a scary bit of information from PC World: ‘According to researchers, the infamous Russian Business Network (RBN), a collective of cybercriminals, is behind the PDF assault.

That information is then transmitted back to RBN.’
