"An update for Flash is available"
-
if it's not Flash, it's Adobe Reader, or f***ing Java.
I sure wish the real Java manifests itself automatically every time I log onto my computer :-D

Sounds like fun! :thumbsup: The closest I have been to Anasazi village was when Mulder and Scully visited one in one of the X-Files movies (or was it an episode... hmmm). :rolleyes:
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).

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 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.
I'm not a stalker, I just know things. Oh by the way, you're out of milk.
Forgive your enemies - it messes with their heads

Indeed. That's what happens when you don't read the replies first.

Now I can't decide if I want to call my new publication "Adobe Flash" or "Desert Pink". Hmmm.

I read the line, I thought of the joke, I eagerly clicked on every thread below hoping no-one had got there first, then refreshed to make sure no-one had got in whilst I was checking. Christ I'm sad.

It is a necessary devil. But no longer in my homecomputer. I have killed Windows and now using Ubuntu.

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.

Yep! Same with Adobe Reader too. They're getting to be more annoying than Microsoft's Patch Tuesday.

Because of these annoying updates I totally removed any Java or Adobe things from my home computer. Windows has two yellow cards… :-D

Yes, we all noticed it, so please stop rebooting your machine! We are tired of having to deny them when we reboot our owns! --------------- imagine that this situation was true, we'll be getting a flash update every...oh d@Mn!

I don't have a problem with alerts showing. I mean they do, but I don't care all that much when or how often an update is benig installed, as long as that installation doesn't disrupt me or my work. But that it does! I do have a problem that every serious site suggests we should be updating regularly to avoid nasty hacks, but when I do install an update, I am asked to agree to Adobes terms and agreements. I once actually read them and decided these regulations are an abomination, and nobody should be forced to 'agree' to them just to make a product save from external abuse! In fact I am fairly certain that the way these 'agreements' are formulated is illegal in some countries. I really would like to prevent having to sign these 'agreements' over and over again, but since the alternative is to run a possibly unsafe application I really see no way short of deinstalling flash from my PC. Why is it even necessary to comfirm an 'agreement' for every single update, assuming that the original product already came with one? On a similar note, why do games designed for being played by underaged, require reading and agreeing to multiple pages of legalise that even an actual advocate would have a hard time to dig through? And why do these games, too, repeatedly require these 'agreements' with every single update?

I don't (any more). One of Adobe's products attempted to install some 3rd party software recently, without asking my permission. I removed all Adobe software immediately, including Flash, Acrobat Reader, and Adobe download manager. Never shall those products annoy me with an update notice again.

Now that you mention it, I am getting Adobe updates almost everyday on my Windows XP at home. Haven't gotten any recently on my Vista at work though.

Just deinstalled Adobe Flash from 117+ PC in a Win Domain, flash stinks, stinks stinks.
