    Is it just me, or does everyone else get an alert that a new version of flash is available every single time I reboot my machine?

    I have disabled most of the Adobe autoupdates. They are just plain annoying. In fact I no longer use Acrobat Free Reader in favor of another one that does not update so much. Wish I could avoid flash too.

    Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. I also do Android Programming as I find it a refreshing break from the MS. "And they, since they Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs" -- Robert Frost

      I was misled when I downloaded Adobe Flash. I assumed it was going to be naughty pictures of Anasazi women.

                  if it's not Flash, it's Adobe Reader, or f***ing Java.

                    Well you were quite a ways away, since they actually filmed that in Vancouver, BC!! There was behind the scenes episode where they explained how they filmed it there (had to paint a shitload of rocks that desert pink color).

                      I don't get any alerts when you reboot your machine.

                        I don't get an alert when you reboot your machine. Anybody who does might want to tighten up the security on the ol' firewall.

                                    With Chrome we are liberated from that Adobe reader plugin because it renders PDF inline. Google Chrome should endeavor a native rendered for Shockwave Movies too.

                                        Is it just me, or does everyone else get an alert that a new version of flash is available every single time I reboot my machine?
