I have found the plugin to acsess flashplayer, via firefox, but cannot the same for Adobe products. I tells me to download both? I don't think that I should have to do it twice? Please could you advise me on this?????????? There are two different versions of Flash, the ActiveX version for IE and the Plugin version used by most other browsers. You need to install the Plugin version for Firefox. Save it to your Desktop. Toolbars, McAfee, Google Chrome, etc. Just apdated the flash.
Works perfect. The reader is not installing though, something to do with a process running,will try to find out what it means? Flash Player has been discontinued and should no longer be updating automatically.
If you find that updating automatically remains an option, at a minimum, disable that option. Since there are no official updates and Flash is past end-of-life, uninstall Flash Player completely for safety.

I have had an issue with Adobe Flash for some time. The other items that you have to watch out for during installs is things like the Google or Ask tool bar turds which by default are ticked ON for installation. It always pays to read every screen during installations and not mindlessly click the NEXT button. Leo, your summary at the beginning of the article seems a bit scary.
What have I done? I had to read your article and the one you link to, to put my mind at ease. Adobe Reader is fine. I would uninstall both Air and Flash. This is a large multi- national company so I cannot recommend them to stop using it. What do I use instead of Flash? YOU would choose to use a different website that uses more current technology, if you can.
I just installed a Flash update a few minutes ago. Now, do I uninstall and simply head back over to Chrome, or do I give Firefox a chance? Flash was a vector for malware way back when the iPhone came out and Steve Jobs blocked iPhones and iPad from installing Flash.

Although Flash Player has long been one of the most well-known plug-ins, it has become much less popular in recent years.
There are a few reasons for this decline in popularity. Because Flash Player is a relatively old plug-in, it has become increasingly vulnerable to online threats like viruses and hackers. Most web browsers have even started disabling Flash Player content by default for security reasons. Also, because Flash Player was designed for desktop computers, it's not very good at displaying content on mobile devices , including smartphones and tablets.
Although you don't need to completely stop using Flash Player, you should use caution. This keeps Flash disabled most of the time, but it gives you the option to temporarily enable it when you're on a site that you know and trust. Because older versions of Flash are vulnerable to online threats, you'll want to make sure you're always using the most recent version.
If you're not running the most recent version, you might see an error message instead of your content. However, we don't recommend updating the plug-in directly from a warning message like this.
Some misleading advertisements are cleverly disguised as warning messages, but they won't actually take you to an update page. That's why it's best to download the update directly from the Adobe website. It's also worth pointing out that some browsers update all of your plug-ins automatically, including Flash Player. If you're using a browser like Internet Explorer, you'll probably need to update your plug-ins manually.
Asking the real questions here: is Adobe Flash Player Safe? Regarded mostly as a vulnerability rather than a practical software development, Adobe announced in early July that it will discontinue support for Flash Player by the end of Still planning on using Shockwave Player on your machine?
You might change your mind after reading this article. At that time, it was estimated that million out of 1 billion desktop computers were using Flash Player. Well, to make a long story short, Flash Player is computer software used to run any type of content developed on the Flash Platform.
This includes audio, video, vector graphics, 3D graphics, raster graphics, and various types of scripts. Although loathed by most of the community for its lackadaisical security, Flash Player was once very popular.
