Hackers are now trying to use these malicious PDF’s to access sensitive data on desktops. Foxit welcomes all PDF Reader users to download the latest version of the Foxit Reader 4.1.1 which addresses and resolves the issues related to the jailbreak hack.

To protect iPhone/iPad users from the jailbreak program that is being used to exploit iPhones in the way they handle PDFs, Foxit is preannouncing its soon to be submitted PDF Reader App for iPhone. Foxit believes that the upcoming release of its Foxit Reader for iPhone will provide a secure PDF reader for the iPhone. Foxit will be submitting this App within two weeks and it will have full PDF viewing capability. Just as with the Windows Reader, Foxit PDF Reader for iPhone will protect users against malicious PDFs.
