1	Hello.

3	Accodring to a SecurityFocus advisory found at
4	http://online.securityfocus.com/archive/1/278984 Acroread 5.05 (as well
5	as some of the previous versions) have a major temp file exploit
6	vulnerability. I believe that it's in users best interest to mask this
7	ebuild until Adobe fixes the issue.
