Zodiac Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Some sites I visit say I need to download the flash player, but I have the latest version. I read there was a problem with the flash player and security. Does anyone know the latest situation? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB1950 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 (edited) You can also check your Adobe Flash Player at: https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html As mentioned above by MJCM, the latest version for Windows is: 18.0.0.209, which fixes the security issue that was recently discovered by a hacking team. All previous versions are blocked in Firefox. It's also doesn't seem to crash so often in Firefox. In fact I haven't had a crash since switching to it, whereas previous versions would crash all the time! Edited August 7, 2015 by BB1950 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukrules Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 There will be more major problems in the future, you can count on this. Just disable it and be done with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some sites will claim that your flash player is not up to date and please download the newest version by clicking this link if you want to watch this content. It's a trick to have you download some bad stuff. Download flash player (if you need it) only from adobe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman51 Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 The latest information is that worth to withdraw from Flash because now the most popular browser which is Google Chrome stop support the flash technology begining in 1 September this year. For now, mainly pop-up adverts, but I think that over time give up the Flash altogether in favor of HTML5 which is much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
