2.3.2008.3309 version installs fine; rescan still shows as insecure. not a good thing. If you say it is insecure, whY? the link to download the latest from your link got me this version which should have resolved the issue.
Needs work.

Trying updating Foxit Reader via the program itself via the updates option under "help". I have version 3.0 which isn't listed as insecure by Secunia.

The latest secure version of Foxit Reader is 3.0.1506

It can be redownloaded from here:

http://www.filehippo.com/download_foxit/changelog/

Once installed check add/remove. U will see a Foxit Toolbar U can uninstall which is not required to use the reader. If U find version 2 (unlikely) uninstall it

If the next scan reveals an insecurity post the path to it.

Allright. Now after much struggle I got the 2.x version ousted. It hung up on the desktop. Thanks.
