Update Adobe Flash Player... or not?

We've all heard the Adobe horror stories... how does a guy decide what to do when he gets something like this on his screen?

Without Flash on your computer a lot of video will never play. If nothing else do it so you can have something iPhone users can't have

I had the same issue. 15 minutes after clearing up my last virus I got the same pop up. I went directly to the Adobe website and downloaded the latest version from there. Haven't seen the pop up since, so it was probably legit.

If you get the pop up after the download I'd be very concerned.

After reading about all the virus problems, I got the same pop up & did what Lee did.

I don't trust those pop ups. If it says I need an update I go straight to the adobe site and download it. Never can be too careful.... lotta bad drivers out there
